Hi Deepak,
You may use DB2 BACKUP DATABASE command to take backup of your database.
Supposing that the name of your database is XYZ, here is the BACKUP
PROCEDURE which you can execute from your DB2 CLP window -
Perform following steps to back up the existing XMLSTORE database:
. Disconnect all applications connected to DB2 and restart the
database server instance by executing following commands from operating
system's command console:
db2stop force
db2start
. Create a backup directory using the following example command:
For Linux and UNIX:
mkdir /export/eventxml_bkup
For Windows:
mkdir \export\eventxml_bkup
PS: On Windows platform, do not create back up directory at a location which
has one or more WHITE SPACES in its path. The database backup DB2 command
fails to backup databases in locations which has white spaces in their path,
on Windows platform.
. Modify the permissions on the backup directory so that the DB2
instance owner user can write to it:
For Linux and UNIX:
chmod a+w /export/eventxml_bkup
For Windows:
chmod a+w \export\eventxml_bkup
. Perform full backup of the database to the newly created backup
directory using following example command:
For Linux and UNIX:
db2 backup database XYZ user db2inst1 using password to
/export/eventxml_backup with 2 buffers buffer 512 parallelism 2
For Windows:
db2 backup database eventxml user db2inst1
using password to \export\eventxml_backup with 2 buffers buffer 512
parallelism 2
