I would like to know if anyone has experienced any issues with exporting or renaming DB2 files spaces. We have a DB2 migration planned and I envision the following:
Nodes: DB2-A = Current server DB2-B = New server
Export DB2 filespaces from DB2-A node
Renaming the DB2-A node to DB2-C node
Renaming the DB2-B node to DB2-A
Import the DB2 filespaces into the new DB2-A node
My thoughts are that the steps above should work to preserve the history of the backups to be accessible from the new DB2 server. Does this make sense?
Also is it possible to rename a DB2 filespace? I have done the rename with a conventional unc filespace but have been unable to find anything about works/or not works for DB2.
Thanks in advance...
