A method for preventing suspension of transactions in a database computing system by monitoring active database logs of the database computing system is provided. The method comprises switching archive units of the database computing system due to full database log condition occurring during system operations of the database computing system. The method further comprises maintaining a database log history table, wherein the database log history table captures a threshold count of the active database logs generated by system threads of the database computing system. The method further comprises defining a temporary location for archiving the active database logs based on the switched archive units of the database computing system, and the maintained threadhold count of active database logs in the database log history table due to full database log condition occurring during system operations of the database computing system.
