Backing up Log file
Hi,
Iam trying to create a back up file for a log file which is being continously updated. Is there a way to backup without loosing the log, while the back up is also up to date? If i try to replace the log with an empty file, I loose the log for some seconds. If I try to create a back up file, the log is immediately updated and my back up is no more current. In short, I want to retain 6 months data in the log file and it should continue to have all updations as they occur. The rest of the old data I want to push into a new file. Is there a better way to do this. Thanks for your help.
