I ran the following by Lakeview support:
<snip>
Suppose your source machine is GDIHQ and your target machine is GDIHQ2. I
am hearing that we should forego backups on GDIHQ and we should be backing
up from GDIHQ2 as to not disrupt our line of business.
Do you have any documentation on the "best practices" of doing that? Like,
do I shut down Mimix enough to free the locks and allow us to perform our
backups but not so far as to kill the remote journals from still getting
their entries?
We want to use BRMS.
</snip>

And their reply was
<snip>
Yes, lots of installations do their backups on their HA systems. There
really isn't an official "Best Practice" recommendation, but personally, I
would set it up just as you describe. Specifically, you can do:
<mimix>/ENDDG DGDFN(*ALL) PRC(*DBAPY) ENDOPT(*IMMED) ENDRJLNK(*NO)

at the beginning of your backup process, then restart the MIMIX processes
with:

STRDG DGDFN(*ALL) PRC(*DBAPY)
</snip>

Sounds pretty straight forward to me. Does anyone have any comments or
suggestions?
