An Australian Freight and Transport Conglomerate Uses an IBM Solution to Clone Their SAP Environment

Overview An Australian freight and transport conglomerate needed to quickly build a usable production support SAP R3 DB2 environment from a point-in-time copy of the production environment taken using HDS ShadowImage. The client already had a solution in place but this was taking more than 12 hours to build the region. Compounding this was the fact that the target catalog changes that were required, had to be built outside of the DB2 suspend window. IBM DB2 Cloning Tool for z/OS software provides access to cloned data using a very fast and sophisticated technique to rename the cloned data as well as alter and correct any inconsistencies in the target catalog, VTOC, VTOCIX, and VVDS.
