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 Fast Path 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 when used with IMS Fast Path Advanced Tool or IMS Fast Path Online Tools.
Creating image copies after the area is reorganized or extended by the Online Space Management utility. The area can remain online throughout the entire process.
