DFSMS copy services<br />

DFSMS provides Advanced Copy Services that include a hardware and s<strong>of</strong>tware solution to<br />

help you manage and protect your data. These solutions help ensure that your data remains<br />

available 24 hours a day, seven days a week. Advanced Copy Services provide solutions to<br />

disaster recovery, data migration, and data duplication. Many <strong>of</strong> these functions run on the<br />

<strong>IBM</strong> TotalStorage Enterprise Storage Server (ESS). With DFSMS, you can perform the<br />

following data management functions:<br />

► Use remote copy to prepare for disaster recovery<br />

► Move your PPRC data more easily<br />

Remote copy provides two options that enable you to maintain a current copy <strong>of</strong> your data at<br />

a remote site. These two options are used for disaster recovery and workload migration:<br />

► Extended remote copy (XRC)<br />

► Peer-to-peer remote copy (PPRC)<br />

There are two types <strong>of</strong> copy:<br />

► An instantaneous copy where all the late updates in the primary are not copied. It is used<br />

for fast backups and data replication in general. The examples in ESS are Concurrent<br />

Copy and Flash Copy.<br />

► Mirroring, a never-ending copy where all the updates are mirrored as fast as possible. It is<br />

used for disaster recovery and planned outages. The example in ESS are Enhanced<br />

PPRC service and XRC.<br />
