NetBackup for SAP archive log files

The following directories contain log files for different types of archive activities:

Windows:

%SAPDATA_HOME%\saparch

UNIX or Linux:

$SAPDATA_HOME/saparch

The files in this directory are named according to a pattern. The encoded_timestamp is a timestamp used in each detail log name that guarantees a unique file name.

Table: File suffixes lists the suffixes that differentiate the different types of archive logs.
