Product Overview

The architecture of Mainstar Database Backup and Recovery for DB2 is designed for high performance and integration within the z/OS environment. The main components include the Backup Engine, Restore Engine, Catalog Manager, and Command Interface. The Backup Engine handles the creation of backups, supporting full, incremental, and differential backup types.

The Restore Engine manages the restoration of databases from backups. The Catalog Manager maintains metadata about all backups, including database names, backup types, and storage locations. The Command Interface provides the primary means of interacting with the product, allowing users to execute commands such as BACKUP DATABASE, RESTORE DATABASE, and REPORT.

Communication between components occurs through z/OS system services and DB2 APIs. The product leverages the z/OS security infrastructure, including RACF, for authentication and access control. Backups can be stored on tape, DASD, or cloud storage solutions integrated with the mainframe.

The product's design prioritizes efficient resource utilization and minimal impact on DB2 performance during backup and restore operations. The product integrates with z/OS logging and auditing mechanisms.
