Backing up storage groups to a secondary volume
This section describes the processing flow for backing up storage groups to a secondary volume on
a single-server system.
To back up a storage group:
• Back up the storage group to a secondary volume.
Back up the storage group. To perform backup, execute EX_DRM_EXG_BACKUP. Specify the
operation ID Operation_A as the argument. In this example, delete the transaction log file to
execute a cold backup.
DBServer > EX_DRM_EXG_BACKUP Operation_A -mode cold -transact_log_del
Specify -mode cold to execute a cold backup. Even when -mode cold is not specified, a cold
backup will be executed as if this option had been specified.
Specify -mode online to execute an online backup. When an online backup is executed, you
cannot specify the -transact_log_del option.
