I am interested in finding out if anyone is using the supplied TSM API to back up multiple instances of DB2 on a single Windows platform - specifically how you manage the association between the instance and the backup images.
The problem we have is when a restore is invoked thereturned list of backups does not differentiate between the DB2 instances. This therefore leads to the risk of a backup for one instance can overwriting another. We are considering modifying the API so that it will set the TSM client (one client per instance) base upon the DB2 environmental variable LOGFILE PATH (a sub-string of the setting contains the instance name which will be set to the TSM client name) Any comment or suggestions (other than move it off of Windows - it is not up to me) would be appreciated Peter Griffin Sydney Water ----------------------------------------------------------- This e-mail is solely for the use of the intended recipient and may contain information which is confidential or privileged.
