Instant Snapshot recovery
The BMC Recovery Management for Db2 solution Instant Snapshot technology enables you to use intelligent storage to obtain fast backup and recovery of large spaces.
Instant Snapshot uses hardware-specific interfaces to replicate large data sets (of any size) in as little as 2 seconds. Hardware support includes any device that supports Flashcopy V2, EMCSNAP, or SIBBATCH DSSNAP.
Instant Snapshots are physical data copies that are almost instantaneous because they require no I/O. In addition to a near-instantaneous copy process, Instant Snapshots offer a near-instant restoration phase during database recovery. If an Instant Snapshot cannot be made, Recovery Management provides the capability for the copy utility to fall back automatically to a mirror-based hardware snapshot or a traditional cache-based software snapshot.
