Using the QUIESCE command

The QUIESCE command in 

BMC AMI Copy

 allows you to quiesce a set of spaces (including retry logic) without making a copy.

The BMC AMI Copy QUIESCE command can use the wildcard capabilities of BMC AMI Copy. BMC AMI Recovery Manager object sets and application-owned objects, such as those for SAP R/3, are also supported by the QUIESCE command.

BMC AMI Copy might break the quiesce into groups before calling the Db2 QUIESCE utility to conform to its restrictions on the number of objects allowed during a single execution.

Important

This means that even if you specify GROUP YES, you will not obtain a common quiesce point for these objects. To obtain a common quiesce point, -ARCHIVE LOG MODE(QUIESCE) is one option.

BMC AMI Copy uses the wait and retry logic as specified by the DB2WAIT and DB2NTRY options when there is a failure. Catalog and directory spaces can be quiesced, but SYSUTILX cannot be quiesced in a group.
