Data Archiving for Adabas (ADR) is a new product from Software AG. As the name implies it allows you to systematically archive data from Adabas in a very controlled, efficient way. Archived data can be recalled into Adabas at a later date.
The following platforms are supported by this version:
AIX 6.1
HP-UX 11i v§ (pa Risc and Itanium)
Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server 5 (x86-64 and System z)
Solaris 10 (Sparc)
SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 11 (x86-64 and System z)
Windows XP Professional
Windows Server 2008
Windows 7 Professional
z/OS
Important:
A new type of license file is required with Data Archiving for Adabas 1.1.1, older license files are no longer valid.
Prior to using data archiving, ensure that the data to be archived has been backed up using ADASAV in case a restore is required.
If you are recalling files containing LOB data, ensure that your database has sufficient free space. For example on Open Systems a database created using the default container sizes is only large enough for two copies of the PERSONNEL demo file. Therefore, when running multiple recall, transfer, etc. operations the database quickly runs out of space.
