Back Up an IDS Database

Before submitting jobs using the Backup Manager, ensure that the
following CA ARCserve Backup services are running:

– Job Engine

– Tape Engine

– Database Engine

Back Up an IDS Database

When you submit a backup job, ON-Bar evaluates your backup privileges and
IDS status, and submits the job to CA ARCserve Backup. You can view one (or
more) job per dbspace, blobspace, or logical log being backed up.

To back up an IDS database

1. Verify that IDS is online.

You can back up data using the Agent for IBM Informix only when IDS is
online.

Note: Be sure to submit the #LOGFILE# backup with each salvage
operation when IDS is offline.

2. Start the Backup Manager.

Important! The agent supports only single, non-concurrent backups and
restores. It does not support parallel operations.
