Copying PeopleSoft 8.1 DB2 Subsystem with Mainstar's Mirroring Solutions/Volume Conflict Rename using the FlashCopy Function of the IBM TotalStorage Enterprise Storage Server

Tags:
back-up

Overview Business has a need for quick, accurate DB2 backup to support both their production copy/recovery and their development copy/restoration requirements. PeopleSoft, Mainstar and IBM formed a joint project team to test the practicality of quickly copying an entire PeopleSoft DB2 Subsystem within the same source subsystem LPAR. The cloned system was used to offload the original subsystem. The tests were conducted on an IBM TotalStorage Enterprise Storage Server (codenamed Shark)(ESS) and an eServer z900 server, using the ESS's FlashCopy advanced function and Mainstar's Mirroring Solutions / Volume Conflict Rename (MS/VCR) software. This paper documents the hardware, software and processes needed to quickly backup and initiate processing on a different DB2 subsystem.
