Task 3: Recovering Db2 applications


After the Db2 catalog and directory are recovered and workfile databases are initialized, you can recover your Db2 applications.

Ready-to-run recovery JCL that was created by ARMBGEN speeds application recovery.

Before you begin

Before you recover your Db2 applications, perform the following tasks:

  • Start Db2. The last step of the Phase 2 job or jobs stopped Db2. Restart it now. Use your recovery site ZPARM, but do not select maintenance mode.

    -START Db2,PARM(zparmName)

    (where zparmName is the ZPARM module you assembled for your recovery site.)

To recover Db2 applications

  1. Submit the offsite application recovery jobs that were created in Task-7-Generating-application-recovery-JCL-ARMBGEN.
  2. If you want to recover applications other than those that were recovered in the previous step, use BMC AMI Recovery Manager to revalidate the recoverability of the desired application object sets, confirm recovery resources, and generate the recovery JCL.
  3. If the volumes at the recovery site are not the same device type as those at the local site, select Allocate in kilobytes.

    Important

    If SITETYPE RECOVERY is selected, ARMBGEN will automatically set Delete STOGROUP Objects to Yes and set Redefine VCAT Objects to Yes.
