Abstract
This redpaper complements the second edition of the IBM Redbook Backup Recovery Media Services: A Practical Approach, SG24-4840. This new information complements the redbook in that, for RISC systems (those systems beyond V3Rn), new functions and features are available for managing backup and recovery.
This new information includes:
- The procedures used to save and restore the SAP environment using Backup Recovery and Media Services (BRMS) for OS/400. Examples are included for two types of backups: full and incremental.
- The steps involved to merge BRMS/400 data from one system to another system. This information is useful in a server consolidation setting, where BRMS for OS/400 is installed on one or more of the servers.
- How BRMS for OS/400 can be used with Tivoli Storage Manager (TSM), formerly called ADSTAR Distributed System Manager (ADSM/400).
- The tools and procedures to diagnose BRMS for OS/400 problems. This basic guide to BRMS/400 problem determination is to be used in conjunction with existing BRMS/400 manuals.
- A description of the restructuring of BRMS for OS/400 code with V4R4 and later. Three installation options can be selected: Standard, Network, and Advanced. Order the features you need, when you need them.
- A checklist of the steps used to implement BRMS/400. If you are already familiar with BRMS/400 implementation, the list can serve as a reminder for the implementation tasks described in the following books:
-- Backup Recovery Media Services: A Practical Approach, SG24-4840
-- Backup Recovery and Media Services for OS/400, SC41-4345
In the future, the information in this redpaper will be merged into a redbook planned to reflect the information in Backup Recovery Media Services: A Practical Approach, SG24-4840 , at a later OS/400 level.
