  • Backup Strategy in a Busy Shop

    I'm new at a company that's trying to test backup/restore via a 3rd party hosting site. 1 problem we have is finding 5-6 hours available to run a SAVSYS. I am very rusty on iSeries backup functions, and most recently was MS SQL DBA, where it was pretty easy to backup databases and servers despite them being in use.

    I have no role in our current backups, but curious what strategies are used for minimal downtime. I know "Save While Active" can help with some backup situations, but not very familiar with it, or other possible options. We're on V7 R2
