DB2 profile example

The profile file provides parameters that customize how IBM® Storage Protect Snapshot works within a particular environment. Use this example to verify that the configuration of the profile is correct for your DB2® data partitioning environment.

The following sample profile is used for a DB2 DPF environment. The profile specifies that snapshots are completed from 06am to 8pm and snapshots with offloaded backups for the remaining time. These offloaded backups use two different SAN Volume Controller clusters, one from 00am to 6am and the other cluster from 8pm to 12pm. Each cluster is backed up by a separate backup system, even though that fact is not obvious in the example.
