ASA Database Administration Guide
Database Administration Utilities
With the Transaction Log utility, you can display or change the name of the transaction log or transaction log mirror associated with a database. You can also stop a database from maintaining a transaction log or mirror, or start maintaining a transaction log or mirror.
A transaction log mirror is a duplicate copy of a transaction log, maintained by the database in tandem.
The name of the transaction log is first set when the database is initialized. The Transaction Log utility works with database files or with write files. The database server must not be running on that database when the transaction log filename is changed (or an error message appears).
You can access the Transaction Log utility in the following ways:
From Sybase Central, using the Change Log File Settings wizard.
At the command prompt, using the dblog command.
Managing log files using the Change Log File Settings wizard
Managing log files using the dblog command-line utility
