Before you can use DB2® Advanced
Copy Services (ACS) to perform a snapshot backup, you must configure DB2 ACS. You use configuration
files to configure DB2 ACS.
Before you begin
You
must perform the following tasks before you can configure DB2 ACS:
- Install DB2 ACS.
- Create the database manager
instance or instances with which you will use DB2 ACS..
- Activate DB2 ACS.
Procedure
Run the setup_db2.sh script from the sqllib/acs directory
without any parameters. This will lead you through an
interactive, text-based wizard that will configure DB2 ACS. The wizard creates a configuration
profile file and modifies the /etc/initab on
the machine to trigger the launch of the DB2 ACS
daemons.
