Recovering with Instant Snapshot copies

BMC AMI Recover supports forward recovery by using Instant Snapshot copies that are made by the BMC AMI Copy for Db2  product with the BMC EXTENDED BUFFER MANAGER (XBM) product. Instant Snapshot copies are data set level copies of table spaces or indexes that are made by using intelligent storage devices. These nontraditional copies are registered in SYSIBM.SYSCOPY as IBM FlashCopy (FC) copies if they are LP copies and in the BMCXCOPY table otherwise. Only full copies are allowed. To recover these copies, specify XBMID in the installation options or on the OPTIONS command. Additionally, the SNAPSHOT option adds support for Instant Snapshots with the INCOPY FULL syntax of the RECOVER command.
