Backing up a data store

Use this task to back up a data store

Why and when to perform this task

A data store consists of the set of tables that a messaging engine uses to store persistent data in a database. Refer to Data store tables for a list of the tables that comprise a data store. All the tables in a data store are held in the same database schema. You can create multiple data stores in the same database only by using a different schema for each data store.

To back up this data, refer to the documentation for your chosen database.

Backup can make use of the suspended I/O feature of DB2 if that RDBMS is used as the persistent store. With other databases that do not possess this capability, the backup could present a longer interruption to service, or require that the messaging engine is stopped while the backup is made. If you attempt to back up the data store for a messaging engine that is still running, you might lose or corrupt important data.

Steps for this task

Include the tables that the topic Data store tables describes.
