Chapter 7 Maintaining Segments Using Third-Party Products : Overview

Overview
This chapter explains how to maintain TIBCO Object Service Broker segments using third-party products while the segments are still online and accessible to the TIBCO Object Service Broker system. This facility interfaces with:
This chapter assumes that you have either of these products and basic experience using either of them to perform point-in-time copies of data.
TIBCO Object Service Broker Commands Available
TIBCO Object Service Broker has a set of commands that facilitate synchronization using TIBCO Object Service Broker with either the BWO feature of DFSMSdss or Softek TDMF:
1.
The FREEZE command flushes all updated pages from storage to the page data sets. If necessary, checkpoints are taken and flushed. When all the I/O activity for this operation is complete, an operator message appears. While the TIBCO Object Service Broker system is frozen, transactions proceed as normal, but no write I/O is performed to the database and journals. If the BWO feature is used, the page and journal data sets that are under the control of DFSMSdfp are set into BWO status. This enables DFSMSdss to issue dumps and copies that can be taken of them.
2.
The UNFREEZE command allows I/O activity to database and journals to resume. If BWO support is used, prior to resuming I/O, the page and journal data sets that are under the control of DFSMSdfp are reset to normal access thus disabling concurrent access.
3.
If the system is in the process of freezing and there are long running tasks active, an information message appears for each such task.
4.
If BWO support is used, the BWOSTATUS command displays the current settings of the BWO flags for each page and journal data set and the return and reason codes from the last action performed on the data set.
