Recovery simulation
Recovery simulation is a feature of the
Recovery Management for Db2
solution and requires both the
BMC AMI Recovery Manager
component and the
BMC AMI Recover
component, as well as the
Recovery Management for Db2
solution password.
Recovery simulation enables you to go a step beyond previewing recovery activity to actually testing it. This nondestructive option performs most of the work of a normal recovery. After reading and merging image copies, log files, and change accumulation files, it discards the output and leaves the underlying table space unaffected. Using this option, you can see exactly how a recovery will run without sacrificing data availability.
Recovery simulation provides a way for you to validate that you can recover your application data. You can use recovery simulation to verify that needed recovery resources are valid and available and that log apply can be done.
For information about the recovery simulation feature, see the Recovery Management for Db2 documentation.
