Your backup made much more agile

The purpose of Flash for i is to manage, automate, report and control all FlashCopy/Snapshot operations on your external storage and reduce backup time to just a few minutes.

Without interrupting production, Flash for i performs "snapshots" of your partition from the IBM i to facilitate many operations, such as backup, data mining, and the creation of test environments.


Common problems to solve

  • You own (or plan to acquire) a Power Server with one or more IBM i partitions and an external disk storage array.
  • Your database and applications need to be available 24/7.
  • You are having trouble finding enough time for a SAVE21.
  • You spend many hours creating test/acceptance/pre-production/consulting/extraction/ anonymization environments.
  • You worry before a system or application upgrade.

Your needs

  • Reducing the daily backup window to its simplest form.
  • Having the opportunity to regularly perform a SAVE21 of the production partition without halting production during this time.
  • Automatically obtaining a copy of the production partition several times a week to conduct tests with real data.
  • Generating recovery or rollback copies of your production partitions in seconds.

The solutions Flash for i

  • Create a "Clone" production partition using IBM's external storage FlashCopy function (or EMC's SnapShot).
  • Allows you to carry out any type of operation on the cloned partition, with virtually no impact on production.
  • Completely automated process using IBM i commands available on the production partition.
  • Real-time monitoring of operation status and history available on the Production partition.
  • Automatically, several times a week, a copy of the production partition is made for testing or pre-production purposes.
