Backup databases

Using image copies to create backup data is essential to the timely recovery of databases after a loss of data or a programming mistake. However, taking data offline can reduce user productivity and negatively impact your business.

IMS Database Solution Pack provides IMS HP Image Copy to help you speed recovery time by supporting quick copy and restarting methods, and allows your system users to become more productive and avoid expensive losses from missed business opportunities.

This tool helps you by:

Providing rapid image copy features that reduce the unavailability of database data sets.
Enabling you to run the image copy process automatically after a database is reorganized when used with IMS Database Reorganization Expert or IMS Online Reorganization Facility.
