Scenario: A company's DB2 database experiences a critical failure, and the primary server becomes unavailable. How can the company ensure minimal downtime and data loss?
- Implementing a high availability solution with automatic failover to a standby server
- Increasing backup frequency to hourly to minimize data loss
- Moving all data to a cloud-based storage solution
- Shutting down all database operations until the primary server is restored
In the event of a critical failure, implementing a high availability solution with automatic failover to a standby server is crucial to minimize downtime and data loss. This involves configuring DB2 for automatic client reroute and using tools like HADR (High Availability Disaster Recovery) to ensure seamless failover to the standby server. This approach ensures that database operations can continue with minimal interruption.
