This screen displays information about each AIJ backup operation being performed on the node. The AIJ Backup Activity screen is also available during cluster- wide statistics collection. This means you can monitor the activities of all AIJ backup operations occurring on any node accessing the database. This screen displays the following fields: o Process.ID - The process identifier of the AIJ backup process. This process may be one of the following: o AIJ backup server (ABS) in which case the process identifier contains the "s" suffix. o RMU Backup After_Journal command, in which case the process identifier contains the "u" suffix. Use the Zoom menu option to display additional information about this process. o Activity - The description of the backup activity being performed by the AIJ backup utility. The following backup activities are displayed: o activation - The AIJ backup utility is being invoked by the monitor if it is the ABS, or startup if the manual backup command is being used. o bind - The AIJ backup utility is binding to the database. o start - The AIJ backup utility is starting the backup operation. o create bkup - The AIJ backup utility is creating a disk- based backup file. o create temp - The AIJ backup utility is creating a temporary AIJ journal. This activity typically occurs when the fast commit feature is used in conjunction with extensible AIJ journals. o record bkup - The AIJ backup utility is backing up an extensible AIJ journal to disk, or any type of AIJ journal to tape, using a record-by-record transfer algorithm. o block bkup - The AIJ backup utility is backing up a fixed- size (circular) AIJ journal to disk, using a 127-block transfer algorithm. o finish - The AIJ backup utility is completing the backup of an AIJ journal. o quiet-point - The AIJ backup utility is attempting to acquire the quiet-point lock. o record shfl - The AIJ backup utility is performing the record shuffle operation used for extensible AIJ journals. o unbind - The AIJ backup utility is unbinding from the database. o VBN - The current block number of the AIJ journal being backed up. The block number is normally prefixed with the AIJ sequence number, so it is easy to identify which AIJ journal is being backed up. o Operation - The activity-specific operation being performed by the AIJ backup utility. This column contains messages similar to those displayed by the Stall Messages screen. o Lock.ID - Any lock the AIJ backup utility may be trying to acquire. This lock is typically the quiet-point lock. Use the LockID menu option to display additional information about this lock. The AIJ Backup Activity screen is not recorded in the binary output file produced using the Output qualifier. Consequently, this screen is not available when you replay a binary file using the Input qualifier.
