Question Active Log Files Deleted

Wondering if there is a way to recover a database if all active log files get deleted by mistake.

Of course assuming that some of the transactions will be lost once recovered.

I am talking of a situation in which there is no backup of the database present.

Think of it as a Crash Recovery.

No there is no way. DB2 need the logs to do crash recovery. Who ever allowed the database to go without a backup and allowed someone access to delete the active logs should be fired.
