Configuring DB2 to allow incremental backups.
The DB2 “trackmod” configuration should be enabled to allow for incremental backups. To set up this environment, follow the step below.
1. From the DB2 Server, launch a terminal session and navigate to the following directory (where “...” indicates the complete installation path of DB2):
...\SQLLIB\BIN
2. Access the DB2 command prompt by issuing the command “DB2” at the terminal session prompt.
3. From the DB2 prompt, input the following command:
update db cfg for <database_name> using trackmod ON
Important: Once the “trackmod” parameter is enabled, an initial full backup is required before an incremental can be performed.
