A word about hardware accelerated backup

You can achieve hardware compression for Db2 backup images and log archive files on AIX POWER 7 and POWER 8 processors by using the nest accelerator NX842. This solution is only supported on AIX versions AIX V7 TL3 SP3 and AIX V6 TL9 SP3 or later.

To enable hardware backup compression by default, set the registry variable DB2_BCKP_COMPRESSION to NX842, otherwise you must specify the compression library libdb2nx842.a in the BACKUP command as follows:

db2set DB2_BCKP_COMPRESSION=NX842 -immediate
