<h1 class="topictitle1">Back up a logical partition</h1>
<div><p>Each logical partition functions like an independent server, and needs
to be backed up individually. </p>
<p>You cannot include multiple logical partitions in the same save operation.
You must back up each logical partition individually. However, you can perform
a backup for each logical partition at the same time (provided all logical
partitions have a dedicated removable media device).</p>
<p>The server automatically maintains the configuration data for your logical
partitions. You cannot save it to removable media.</p>
<p>You need to make two copies of each backup you perform because
you should always store one copy off site in case of a disaster.</p>
<p>It is essential that you have a <a href="../rzaj1/rzaj1overview.htm">backup
and recovery strategy</a> for each logical partition so that you do not
lose any of your important data.</p>
<p>If you have any advanced program-to-program communications (APPC) controls
configured that use OptiConnect on the logical partition, vary off these controllers
before performing the save. If you do not vary off these controllers, they
go into a failed status, are marked as damaged, and are not saved.</p>
<p>You must perform each backup from the console or a workstation that is
attached to that logical partition. Follow the steps in Back up your server
as you back up each logical partition.</p>
