Allows you to change the LogMiner state of a database.
1 – Description
Use this command to enable or disable LogMiner operations on an
Oracle Rdb database. When LogMiner is enabled, the Oracle Rdb
database software writes additional information to the after-
image journal file when records are added, modified, and deleted
from the database. This information is used during the unload
operation.

3 – Parameters
3.1 – root-file-spec
The root file specification of the database. The default file
extension is .rdb.
4 – Command Qualifiers
4.1 – Continuous
Continuous
Nocontinuous
Enables the database for the Continuous LogMiner feature
when used in conjunction with the Enable qualifier. Use the
NoContinuous qualifier with the Enable qualifier to disable use
of the Continuous LogMiner feature.
The RMU Set Logminer /Disable command explicitly disables
the Continuous LogMiner feature as well as the base LogMiner
functionality. To enable the Continuous LogMiner feature again,
the entire RMU Set Logminer /Enable /Continuous command must be
used.
4.2 – Disable
Specifies that LogMiner operations are to be disabled for the
database. When LogMiner is disabled, the Oracle Rdb software does
not journal information required for LogMiner operations. When
LogMiner is disabled for a database, the RMU Unload After_Journal
command is not functional on that database.
4.3 – Enable
Specifies that LogMiner operations are to be enabled for the
database. When LogMiner is enabled, the Oracle Rdb database
software logs additional information to the after-image journal
file. This information allows LogMiner to extract records. The
database must already have after-image journaling enabled.
4.4 – Log
Log
Nolog
Specifies that the setting of the LogMiner state for the database
be reported to SYS$OUTPUT. The default is the setting of the DCL
VERIFY flag, which is controlled by the DCL SET VERIFY command.
5 – Usage Notes
o To use the RMU Set Logminer command, you must have the
RMU$BACKUP, RMU$RESTORE, or RMU$ALTER privilege in the root
file access control list (ACL) for the database or the OpenVMS
SYSPRV or BYPASS privilege.
o The RMU Set Logminer command requires offline access to the
database. The database must be closed and no other users may
be accessing the database.
o Execute a full database backup operation after issuing an
RMU Set Logminer command that displays the RMU-W-DOFULLBCK
warning message. Immediately after enabling LogMiner, you
should perform a database after-image journal backup using the
RMU Backup After_Journal command.
6 – Examples
Example 1
The following example enables a database for LogMiner for Rdb
operation.
