Backing up databases

After you load reports into IBM® Content Manager OnDemand, we recommend that you create a backup copy of the Content Manager OnDemand data.

When you backup the Content Manager OnDemand database, you protect control information and index data that Content Manager OnDemand and the database manager need to support the system.
When you backup the Content Manager OnDemand data in IFS, you protect your data that resides on disk that might not have been copied to archive media yet.

IBM recommends that you backup the data at least once a week, and more often if you load reports every day.

See Backup and recovery for details about Content Manager OnDemand backup and recovery.
