Scenario: A DBA needs to perform a point-in-time recovery in DB2 due to data corruption. What steps should they take to accomplish this?
- Apply the last full database backup and transaction logs to recover the database to its state before corruption.
- Perform a full database backup, restore it to a different location, and apply transaction logs up to the desired point in time.
- Perform a table-level restore from a previous backup and replay logs to reach the desired point in time.
- Roll back the database to the last consistent state, restart the database, and reapply transactions from the application logs.
Point-in-time recovery in DB2 typically involves restoring the database to a consistent state prior to the corruption incident. This requires performing a full database backup, restoring it to a different location, and applying transaction logs up to the desired point in time to achieve consistency.
