Now planning to activate it and ON the LOG WRITING

what is the best procedure can be followed. if I activate them now , can the livecache/maxdb data get affected?

I would like to get clarified these doubts. Please guide and provide your inputs

Hi Daniel,

Deactivation of Log area should be done only during special cases like upgrade or huge data load which can cause log area full situation.

But point in time recovery of database cannot be done if log writing is switched off , so for production systems it is always recommended to keep the log writing active (default setting).

If you feel that log area full will occur and close monitoring is not possible, you can activate automatic log backup.

Please refer SAP note : 869267 - FAQ : SAP MaxDB Log area for more details.

All your queries are answered in the above mentioned SAP note.

Best Regards,

Karthik
