Source and copy node configuration

The first step in setting up Db2® Mirror is to provide the information for the setup source node and setup copy node.

HMC information
Specify the HMC information for the setup source and setup copy LPARs. The LPARs can be managed by the same HMC or by different HMCs.
Node information
Define the setup source node and setup copy node for your Db2 Mirror pair.
Cloning method
The cloning method defines how to copy the data from the setup source node to the setup copy node.
Cluster information
Db2 Mirror uses clustering for IASP management, maintaining quorum data, and advanced node failure detection.
Time server
A time server must be used to keep the clocks of the nodes synchronized.
Mirror properties
There are properties within Db2 Mirror which will affect characteristics of the replication environment.
