NOTIFY.UIC and recovery


When you specify ICNEEDED(OFF), the Index Build function issues a NOTIFY.UIC command to inform DBRC that you can recover the database without an image copy.

The Index Build function can recreate all index databases. After you recover the primary database, run the Index Build function to recreate all indexes. The ability to recreate the indexes eliminates the need to save the image copies and logs for the index databases, saving time in the normal backup cycle. It also saves index building time because recreating the indexes is faster than recovering them.
