Abstract

System control over the logging of objects in order to meet the user specified recovery requirements. Under the fixed recovery time environment, the user chooses a length of time to be spent on object recovery, and the system dynamically manages the logging of objects to meet this time. The shorter the time the user chooses, the more objects the system will log, and the more performance degradation there will be as a result of the logging at run-time. The user may partition storage into Auxiliary Storage Pools (ASPs), which are groups of non-volatile storage, and then specify the recovery time on a per ASP basis. Under the minimal impact environment, the system dynamically manages the objects to be logged such that the object logging has a minimal impact on run-time performance.
