The following provides an overview of the backup procedure.
Check the work operation status
Check whether processing is in operation or not.
Declare the start of online backup
If processing is found to be in operation in step 1, declare the start of online backup for the database to stop updating data files to make the disk partition that stores processing data ready for online backup.
Back up (copy) a disk partition
Back up (copy) a disk partition that stores the transaction data using the backup management function or the replication management function of AdvancedCopy Manager.
Declare the end of online backup
If processing was found to be in operation in step 1, declare the end of online backup for the database to resume updating the data files.
AdvancedCopy Manager provides a sample script that automatically performs steps 2 through 4. For more information, refer to "B.2.1.2 Backup".
