• Running a SAP ERP application on ASE database.

• ASE transaction log is completely full (Error 1105/3475)
• ASE transaction log is corrupt (Error 695/834)
• The database is subsequently inaccessible and unrecoverable
• You are considering truncating the ASE transaction log withh the database in bypass recovery mode (aka suicide log procedure), in order to clear the above conditions.
  
  
• When executing the 'dump tran' command
• Error 4246 is returned
   
  dump tran db1 with no_log

  Msg 4246, Level 16, State 1:
  Server 'ASE', Line 1:
  Warning: You cannot run DUMP TRANSACTION WITH NO_LOG for a database that is in bypass recovery mode because this can cause data inconsistency.
  Use the command 'dump tran db1 with no_log, force_key=12345' to bypass this restriction.
