9.2 Enable Backup Redundancy

Information

Backup redundancy ensures that multiple instances of database backups exist.

Rationale:

Maintaining redundant copies of database backups will increase business continuity capabilities should a Db2 service failure coincide with a corrupt backup.

NOTE: Nessus has not performed this check. Please review the benchmark to ensure target compliance.

Solution

Define and implement a process to replicate your backups onto multiple locations.
