Abstract
An intelligent log gap detection to ensure necessary backup promotion. Specifically, a method and system are disclosed, which entail determining whether to pursue a differential database backup or promote the differential database backup to a full database backup, in order to preclude data loss across high availability databases. The deduction pivots on a matching or mismatching between log sequence numbers (LSNs).
