4 The problem there is too much data! Surveys show 81% of respondents state data/storage growth is their biggest challenge, as they attempt to manage multiple distributed Open Systems backup servers that are all trying to move backup data across the same TCP/IP links their organizations depends on for communications... Everyone can agree business information is priceless. However the backups to protect it take to long and are taking longer and longer.

6 How do we improve on this SIMPLE Consolidate distributed data protection to a System z.. moving backup data on high performance FICON. You need to consolidate distributed data protection to a System z and move backup data on high performance FICON channels, reducing the amount of time it takes to protect all that data as well as the amount of storage you use to store the backup. Data protection technologies are continuing to evolve particularly in the System z mainframe environment, for DS8700 customers with a z/os mainframe the solution to this problem is the introduction of the combination of INNOVATION FDRSOS, with IBM z/os Distributed Data Backup (zddb) and IBM FlashCopy.

DS8700 zddb and FDRSOS can help you consolidate hundreds of distributed Open Systems backup servers onto one z/os backup server running on System z. INNOVATION FDRSOS is a new way to extend z/os data protection to Linux on System z, AIX, Linux x86-64, NetWare, OES2, UNIX and Windows data residing on IBM DS8700 system storage. cutting backup and improving recovery times. conserving CPU resources. reducing backup storage requirements. protecting investments in z/os tape management & security systems. INNOVATION FDRSOS seamlessly integrates with zddb to provide dual access (FICON and FIBRE) DS8700 Open Systems disk volumes full-volume physical image backup/restore across high-performance System z FICON channels. No other solution has the capability of using high performance System z FICON channels to directly read and write the same DS8700 disk volumes used by the Open Systems business applications themselves. Only FDRSOS and zddb combine to transfer data at high performance FICON megabytes per second versus TCP/IP communication network speeds of megabits per second. FDRSOS offers the advantage of using high-speed TS3500 tape, TS7680 ProtecTIER de-duplication, TS7700 VTL and DS8700 disk, over high-performance System z FICON channels, under the control of z/os auto-operations scheduling, tape management (CA1, RMM ) and data access security (RACF, ACF2, Top Secret ). FDRSOS/zDDB backup/restore of a complete DS8700 logical volume is a data protection practice best suited for the protection of large databases and disaster recovery.

12 Before IBM zddb (z/os Distributed Data Backup) Multiple Open Systems Backup Servers Moving Distributed Data Across TCP/IP Links Separate environments 1 Multiple Open Systems backup servers Data moving across TCP/IP links Separate backup environments for mainframe and distributed data Enterprises today depend on a mix of mainframe and distributed data, increasingly environments that consolidate mainframe and Open Systems platforms are becoming the norm. Yet there are separate backup environments for mainframe and distributed data. Notwithstanding advances in network-oriented data protection technology vast data warehouses that continue to expand, and far-flung internet-based customers exacerbate the problem to the point where skipping backups in order to keep business systems available seems the only choice. Many enterprises find the sheer volume of distributed data is overwhelming TCP/IP communication networks, backup windows and available backup storage; consuming critical processor cycles while tying up processors and peripherals. The conventional answer has been to deploy additional Open Systems backup servers each with its own disk and tape storage. Additionally, Data Protection is not only a question of backup. Business resiliency also depends on reliable rapid restore, but with data moving across TCP/IP links not just backup but recovery as well, is never as rapid as you would like and always has its own degree of uncertainty.

13 After FDRSOS with zddb Moving Distributed Backup Data on FICON Channels 1 No separate Open Systems backup servers Data moving across FICON channels 3 One single backup environments for mainframe and distributed data Now with zddb distributed data volumes have two connections one for general read/write (from distributed servers) and the other for backup read/write (from System z). What the DS8700 did not support previously was the reading and writing of the Fixed Block (open) data via a z/os Host using FICON channel attachment and Fixed Block Architecture (FBA) commands. By implementing the Fixed Block Architecture (FBA) commands, which the DS8000 had discarded years ago, you can now read and write the Fixed Block (open) volumes from the z/os Host. The FDRSOS backup software from INNOVATION that is running on System z issues these resurrected FBA commands to the open volumes on the DS8700 to back them up. This wasn t possible before the DS8700 resurrected the older FBA commands. FDRSOS on Systems z can also take a non-disruptive backup using IBM FlashCopy of Open System volumes and put the backup data to System z attached tape, disk or a ProtecTIER VTL for de-dupe. NOTE: The Fixed Block volumes when attached to the Open Servers (AIX, Solaris, HP-UX, Windows, etc.) read and write the blocks using the SCSI- FCP channel protocol and the SCSI command set. The FBA commands are a different command set than the SCSI command set. System z (z/os) reads and writes blocks using the CKD architecture and command set over FICON channels, which is unique to the mainframe. Copyright 2010 INNOVATION Data Processing.

15 Understanding how zddb Cross-Platform Access Works DS8700 z/os Distributed Data Backup microcode feature allows z/os to access both mainframe and FBA data. System z Processor Open Systems DS8700 FICON Channel Fibre Channel z/os ECKD DASD CKD Format FBA Format Open System FBA Disk Understanding how zddb Cross-Platform Access Works Modern storage systems separately virtualize logical volumes for both Open Systems and System z mainframe access on internally managed FBA disk, (sometime spoken of though not particularly correctly as SCSI disk). This is because Open Systems and System z mainframe operating systems each use a different disk recording format and command set. The mainframe uses a variable length record block with a data length count, a record key and data fields i.e. count key data (CKD) and extended count key data (ECKD) formats. Open Systems employ a fixed length block architecture (FBA) format. Conventionally neither mainframe nor Open System programs are able to understand the other s format. Consequently Open System processors were traditionally only given access to the Open System fixed block architecture (FBA) format disks and System z processors access to only the mainframe format ECKD disk. A partnering between INNOVATION Data Processing and IBM changes all that, enabling through a unique combination of the z/os Distributed Data Backup microcode feature and specialized software (i.e. FDRSOS), mainframe FICON access to Open Systems format disks in the DS8700.

On the left is the physical disks installed in the DS8700. These may have various capacities and speeds. These physical disks are defined within the DS8700 as logical volumes in the mainframe (CKD) format. Those logical volumes appear to be physical IBM 3390 disk volumes to the System z. Each one assigned a z/os device address in the System z HCD and z/os I/O configuration. Copyright 2010 INNOVATION Data Processing. All rights reserved. 16

The DS8700 storage processor makes the physical disks appear to be one or more DS8700 logical volumes. The logical volumes do not have to match the physical disks. For example, a given 73GB physical disk may be make to appear as 7 10GB logical volumes. From the viewpoint of the Open Systems processor, the DS8700 logical volumes are physical disks. Each one has a SCSI (i.e. Fibre channel) address. The Open System server may access each logical volume as a single disk, or may group them into a volume group using Logical Volume Manager or database software.

One, a FCP address for Open System access and the other a FICON device address for z/os access. FDRSOS uses the FICON z/os device address. Copyright 2010 INNOVATION Data Processing.

Backup at volume level does not need to read Open System file systems. Data does NOT go across the corporate communications network. Data transfer does not consume TCP/IP CPU resources. Data transfer is FICON channel speed. Considerations Data to be backed up must reside in a storage controller with the crossplatform access a Distributed Data Backup like feature. (Currently that is an IBM DS8700 or an EMC V-Max.) Performance Expectations The data transfer rate depends on physically accessing the source disks. Performance expectations on properly configured FICON connections are in the range of 100 MB/sec per data stream. The FDRSOS aggregate data transfer rate is only limited by the number of Open Systems disks available for concurrent access, the storage controller capacity and FICON channel configuration.

22 What is different with zddb & FDRSOS? A significant reduction in CPU time and much higher performance. TCP/IP FDRSOS Comparison Performance MB/sec CPU Usage Millions of Instructions /GB <50 >100 FDRSOS is more than twice as fast >1400 <100 TCP/IP take more than 14 times as much CPU FDRSOS full volume backup CPU and wall clock elapsed times will vary, depending on the specifics of the System z processor and the tape subsystem in use. Generally however, FDRSOS full volume backup will use fewer that 100 million instructions per mega byte of data. Using IBM TS1130 or ORACLE/STK T10000 tape systems, FDRSOS throughput can be expected in excess of 300 GB/hr per tape drive, while recording the full capacity of the disk.

Empower distributed data backup with System z mainframe RAS. Easy to use...and simple to automate Though zddb defined disks are not standard z/os volumes FDRSOS and zddb provide most of the same z/os services and commands you are familiar with; i.e. a z/os like VOLSER in the volume label, as well as MOUNT and VARY commands that put the volumes in a pseudo-online status that allows familiar z/os console commands to provide status information just as if they were z/os disk volumes. FDRSOS itself uses standard z/os JCL and simple control statements. Copyright 2010 INNOVATION Data Processing. All rights reserved. 23

24 Extremely easy to use FDRSOS BACKUP a zddb volume //DUMP EXEC PGM=FDRSOS,REGION=0M //FDRSUMM DD SYSOUT=* //SYSPRINT DD SYSOUT=* //TAPEA DD DSN=BACKUP.SC2T3D0(+1),DISP=(,CATLG),UNIT=TAPE //SYSPRINA DD SYSOUT=* //SYSIN DD * DUMP TYPE=FULL MOUNT VOL=C2T3D0,TAPEDD=A NOTE: //TAPEAA DD will create a duplicate copy for vaulting FDRSOS is a full-volume physical backup of the entire Open Systems disk. This is an example of backing up one FDRSOS disk. The TAPEA DD statement defines the backup dataset (The last character A can be any alphanumeric or national character). The matching SYSPRINA will contain messages from the backup task for the backup to TAPEA. Note that you can create a duplicate backup by including a TAPEAA DD statement (the last (A) character repeated twice). On the MOUNT statement, you specify the volume label of the Open Systems disk and the last character of the TAPEx DD statement; i.e. A. This creates a full-volume physical backup, containing every sector of the FBA disk. Copyright 2010 INNOVATION Data Processing. All rights reserved. 24

25 FDRSOS RESTORE a zddb volume //RESTORE EXEC PGM=FDRSOS,REGION=0M //FDRSUMM DD SYSOUT=* //SYSPRINT DD SYSOUT=* //TAPE1 DD DSN=BACKUP.SC2T3D0(0),DISP=OLD //DISK1 DD UNIT=SYSALLDA,VOL=SER=C2T3D0 //SYSIN DD * RESTORE TYPE=FULL FDRSOS restores a full-volume physical image of the entire Open Systems disk. This job restores the backup created in the previous example. This is a physical full-volume restore. Since the directory information is overlaid, the volume must usually be dismounted from the Open System, or the Open System must be brought down and then re-booted. Restoring an Open System volume, by default, the operator will be prompted for permission before beginning the restore. The MOUNT statement can also specify the FDRSOS volume label, and the data set name of the cataloged backup data set in which case the backup data set will be dynamically allocated and there is no need for the DISK DD.

26 How zddb Volumes are configured DS8700 zddb disks are defined as 3390 but are NOT normal z/os volumes. Mark zddb disks as OFFLINE devices, so z/os will not attempt to access them at IPL time. Attempts to vary DS8700 zddb disks online to z/os will result in error messages, however the devices will remain accessible to FDRSOS. In HCD, the z/os options for a zddb Open System device will look similar to this: View Device Parameter / Feature Definition Row 1 of 6 Device number.. : 01E0 Device type... : 3390 Parameter/ Value Req. Description Feature OFFLINE Yes Device considered online or offline at IPL DYNAMIC Yes Device supports dynamic configuration LOCANY Yes UCB can reside in 31 bit storage ALTCTRL No Separate physical control unit path SHARED Yes Device shared with other systems This is an example of the device entry in HCD for a zddb disk that FDRSOS will access. Notice that it is simply defined as a normal 3390 with OFFLINE YES. Copyright 2010 INNOVATION Data Processing. All rights reserved. 26

27 Give zddb volumes a z/os VOLSER //LABEL EXEC PGM=FDRSOS,REGION=0M //STEPLIB DD DISP=SHR,DSN=fdrsos.loadlib //SYSPRINT DD SYSOUT=* //SYSUDUMP DD SYSOUT=* //SYSIN DD * LABEL TYPE=SOS MOUNT UNIT=01E0,SETVOL=41HD07 MOUNT UNIT=01E1,SETVOL=32HD10 * * * * * * * MOUNT UNIT=01EA,SETVOL=C2T3D0 zddb disks are labeled by FDRSOS with a z/os-style VOLSER (6 alphanumeric characters). This is, just as with a z/os volume a one time operation. zddb stores the VOLSER label and other FDRSOS information in a section of the logical volume reserved for FDRSOS use (not part of the conventionally accessible SCSI partition). The FDRSOS LABEL function also stores the label in the z/os UCB so they can be easily accessed using the simple z/os JCL you saw earlier. Copyright 2010 INNOVATION Data Processing.

However in advance of attempting to use a zddb device there is a simple way to ensure there is no problem accessing them. After you add the zddb disks to the active configuration, you can verify that you have access to them. Use the console DS PATHS command, before you attempt to LABEL them (or after), to verify that the zddb disks are defined, and that they have at least one valid path. Here is an example of a DS PATHS command after a LABEL of only some of the disks. This is one way you can identify the zddb/fdrsos disks are accessible.

You must run an FDRSOS VARYON job after an IPL, to restore it. A best practice is to include the FDRSOS VARYON command in the system IPL procedure so that after any IPL all the zddb disks are immediately available to FDRSOS. On the MOUNT statement, you can specify prefixes or the full device addresses of the zddb disks the system is to MOUNT. On most FDRSOS command you can also include the operand PRINT=STATUS or PRINT=(STATUS,DIR) as shown here. STATUS causes FDRSOS to try to identify the format of the zddb disk. FDRSOS can identify most disk formats. The example above shows the disk is a Linux format. Copyright 2010 INNOVATION Data Processing. All rights reserved. 29

32 BreakTHROUGH Technology IBM zddb and FlashCopy FDRSOS and SOSINSTANT Non-Disruptive Consistent Multi-volume Disaster Recovery Backup Protection for Distributed Data System z Processor Open Systems FlashCopy DS8700 IBM FlashCopy technology brings a dramatic change to disaster recovery backup protection; i.e. an almost instant FlashCopy followed by a consistent non-disruptive backup. Even the fastest conventional backup pales in comparison with the promise of continuous 24x7x365 availability that comes with the introduction of Consistency Group FlashCopy disaster recovery backup protection. The benefits that can be derived when an instant point-in-time hardware copy across multiple disk volumes is used in conjunction with nondisruptive backup software are universal and consistent across all operating system platforms.

34 SOSINSTANT Consistent Multi-volume Replication SOSINSTANT can create multiple point-in-time backups in parallel. Multi-volume point-in-time replication uses FlashCopy Consistency Groups Stops I/O to all volumes in the FlashCopy Consistency Group [queue full] Creates crash consistent copies of multiple volumes at a single point-in-time. FDRSOS defines a FlashCopy Consistency Group z10 Host SOSINSTANT FlashCopy E#21E0 Application Source E#21EB Application Source E#21EC Application Source FDRSOS Backup z/os I/O (Target (Target) (Target) 21E1 21E2 21E3 FDRSOS FlashCopy Targets offline to application Consistency Group FlashCopy replicates multiple disks in parallel at a single point-in-time, ensuring the I/O integrity and data consistency of the group, by preventing applications from issuing dependent writes during the FlashCopy process. SOSINSTANT employs FlashCopy Consistency Group operations to create point-in-time disk backups of databases without quiescing applications which typically employ the journaling or logging features that support recovery from a crash consistent backup. SOSINSTANT consistent operations also significantly reduce the overall instant run time by creating the FlashCopy replicas of multiple volumes in a parallel process, instead of a serial volume by volume FlashCopy.

Using SOSINSTANT with FlashCopy, you would divide an existing FDRSOS volume backup into two steps (they may be in one job or two). The first SOSINSTANT step will capture all the point-in-time images of the selected source volumes using FDRSOS FCOPY or CONFCOPY. This will take only a few seconds depending on the number of volumes. MOUNT statements in the first step, specify the VOLSER of the active business system zddb disks and the z/os UCB device address of an associated zddb target. The second FDRSOS step non-disruptively creates the backup tapes, reading the point-in-time target images instead of the active business system disks. FCOPY=USE tells FDRSOS to read the FlashCopy of the source created by the SOSINSTANT step. FDRSOS remembers the device address of the target device most recently used as a FlashCopy of a source volume. Consequently MOUNT statements in the second step, simply specify the VOLSER of the active business system zddb disks and the TAPE DD of where to write the backup.
