Business Challenge
Making full image copies on a regular basis is costly and time-consuming, especially if it is unnecessary for your environment. Knowing when to make a full image copy versus incremental copies translates into significant CPU savings. The IBM® native MODIFY utility provides limited ability to maintain SYSCOPY and synchronize it with image copies you will need for recovery. Reliable image copies lead to fast recoveries.
Business Need
- Leverage existing staff
- Ensure data integrity
- Maintain high business availability
- Ensure fast copy processing
- Minimize JCL changes
Our Solution
BMC COPY PLUS for DB2 runs several times faster than conventional image copy utilities. Coupled with the BMC SNAPSHOT UPGRADE FEATURE for DB2 product, BMC COPY PLUS for DB2 can shorten recoveries, leading to maximum data availability. The C+/MODIFY feature of BMC COPY PLUS for DB2 allows you to accurately maintain the SYSCOPY table while keeping it in sync with image copies. The combination of BMC COPY PLUS for DB2 and C+/MODIFY helps you streamline DB2 recoveries with the most efficient use of available DASD resources.
Key Features & Benefits
- Runs up to twice as fast as the DB2 V6.1 Copy Utility
- Provides additional functions not found in the native utilities
- Improves data availability and performance
- Provides versatile auditing and exclusive usability capabilities
- Supports Instant Snapshot with ETENDED BUFFER MANAGER (XBM) or Snapshot Upgrade Feature products in 64-bit mode
