NBU Version 7.1.0.4 (Linux)
Hi all,
We are just starting to use the DB2 agent in our environment, and wanted to find out about verifying DB2 backups using the db2ckbkp command. I have read all the guides I can but haven't been able to find the information.
As per process of obtaining the DB2 backup list we run the following command - bplist -C <Client> -t 18 -l -R /
This gives us the following output.
-rw-rw-r-- db2inst1 staff 137610056K Jan 23 11:31 /DB2/TESTDB/node0000/20130123113137/TESTDB.0.db2inst1.node0000.0.20130123113137.1
What I want to know is if it is possible to somehow verify this image from DB2 using the db2ckbkp command?
Previously we would run the following command against an image to get the header information.
db2ckbkp -h SAMPLE2.0.TEST.NODE0000.CATN0000.19990818122909.001
