Full Backup
For a full backup to include NetBase, you will need to stop the NetBase job.
Action Enter Explanation
Flush the pipeline
(optional)
:RUN
NBFLUSH.PUB.NETBASE,STOPWAIT;PARM=
shadownode
(on the master node)
This step applies to shadowing
environments only, and it is
optional for those. If
performed, it will force all
updates in the shadowing
pipeline to post to the shadow
files, giving you a sync point at
which time both the master and
shadow data matches.
This step does not interfere
with production on the master
system.
Stop NetBase
:RUN NBCTRL.PUB.NETBASE;INFO="STOP
NETBASE"
This step gracefully stops all
NetBase activities, including
NFA, Shadowing, AutoRPM
and Remote spooling.
Stop the network
:NSCONTROL STOP
:NETCONTROL STOP;NET=LAN1*
:NETCONTROL STOP;NET=LOOP
Shutdown the network, now
that NetBase has stopped
gracefully.
