Commands for Backups 

Use

You can carry out data backups (full and incremental) and log backups with the Database Manager.

For log backups, we recommend that you enable automatic log backup. The option of interactive log backups is also available to you however.

Prerequisites

Note the DBM operator authorizations for each of the DBM Server commands.

The prerequisite for executing all other backup commands is to execute the command to backup the database instance first.
