Migrating Db2 on AIX to Power Virtual Server


IBM Power Virtual Server located in IBM data centers: Off-premises

IBM Power Virtual Server Private Cloud: On-premises


IBM® Power® Virtual Server provides an excellent infrastructure and environment to relocate your Power on AIX assets to high performance virtual computing infrastructure.

As a DB2 administrator or infrastructure architect you get the option to leverage Db2 backup/restore procedures and Db2 HADR database synchronization commands.

You can create an off-prem backup of your Db2 database for disaster recovery, or fully migrate your Db2 workload from on-premises to a Power Virtual Server environment in a safe and secure IBM datacenter, quickly and easily using common Db2 tools.

To perform migration, see Migrating Db2 on AIX to Power Virtual Server.
