Activating the DEMO Variant of a Log Mode 

Use

The DEMO variant is available for the two log modes SINGLE and DUAL.

You can use this functionality to reduce the time needed for transferring large volumes of data to the database instance.

By activating the DEMO variant for a log mode, you temporarily deactivate the log backup. No further data is written to the log.

Prerequisites

The DEMO variant of a log mode can only be set if the relevant log mode is active. This means that you can only switch from SINGLE to SINGLE/DEMO or from DUAL to DUAL/DEMO (Changing the Log Mode).

The database instance is in ONLINE mode.

Procedure

Select the DEMO variant of the current log mode.

Choose LogMode ® Change LogMode.

Result

The DEMO variant of the current log mode is displayed as the current variant.
