Supporting SAP R/3

Table spaces and indexes in SAP R/3 applications are supported by 

BMC AMI Recovery Manager

 by specifying the APPLICATION syntax. APPLICATION is an alternative to TABLESPACE in the COPY, COPY IMAGECOPY, QUIESCE, RECALL, and MODIFY commands.

When this type of object is specified with a creator name of SAPR3 (APPLICATION SAPR3), all table spaces that have CREATOR=SAPR3 are selected. If INDEXES YES is specified, the indexes associated with the selected table spaces are also selected.

Important

DSNUM cannot be used with APPLICATION. However, EXCLUDE is supported.

APPLICATION can be mixed with TABLESPACE and INDEXSPACE specifications within the same COPY, COPY IMAGECOPY, or MODIFY command and with TABLESPACE specifications within the same QUIESCE or RECALL command.

Important

For SAP R/3 Release 4.5 or later, we recommend using BMC AMI Recovery Manager for Db2 to generate BMC AMI Recovery Manager JCL and build size-balanced backup and recovery groups.
