Dynamic Log Messages
ALERT: The oldest logical log (logid) contains records from an open transaction (transaction_address). Logical logging will remain blocked until a log file is added. Add the log file with the onparams -a command, using the -i (insert) option, as in: onparams -a -d dbspace -s size -i. Then complete the transaction as soon as possible.

ALERT: The oldest logical log (`logid`) contains records from an open transaction (`transaction_address`). Logical logging will remain blocked until a log file is added. Add the log file with the onparams -a command, using the -i (insert) option, as in: onparams -a -d `dbspace` -s `size` -i. Then complete the transaction as soon as possible.

Cause

If the DYNAMIC_LOGS parameter is set to 1, the database server prompts the administrator to add log files manually when they are needed.

Action

Use the onparams -a command with the -i option to add the log file after the current log file. Then complete the transaction as soon as possible.
