Glossary

of the logging level used during backup. Data Protector provides four logging levels: Log All, Log Directories, Log Files, and No Log. The different logging level settings influence the IDB growth, backup speed, and the convenience of browsing data for restore.

logical-log files

This applies to online database backup. Logical-log files are files in which modified data is first stored before being flushed to disk. In the event of a failure, these logical-log files are used to roll forward all transactions that have been committed as well as roll back any transactions that have not been committed.

login ID (MS SQL Server specific term) The name a user uses to log on to Microsoft SQL Server. A login ID is valid if Microsoft SQL Server has an entry for that user in the system table syslogin.

login information to the Oracle Target

Database (Oracle and SAP R/3 specific term)

The format of the login information is <user_name>/<password>@<service>, where:

•<user_name> is the name by which a user is known to Oracle Server and to other users. Every user name is associated with a password and both

have to be entered to connect to an Oracle Target Database. This user must have Oracle SYSDBA or SYSOPER rights.

•<password> must be the same as the password specified in the Oracle password file (orapwd), which is used for authentication of users performing database administration.

•<service> is the name used to identify an SQL*Net server process for the target database.

login information to the Recovery Catalog Database (Oracle specific

term)

The format of the login information to the Recovery (Oracle) Catalog Database is <user_name>/ <password>@<service>, where the description of the user name, password, and service name is the same as in the Oracle SQL*Net V2 login information to the Oracle target database. In this case, <service> is the name of the service to the Recovery Catalog Database, not the Oracle target database.

Note that the Oracle user specified here must be the owner of the Oracle Recovery Catalog.
