<div><p>Several techniques can be implemented to reduce the backup window
by conducting backups from a second copy of the data. </p>
<div class="p"> <div class="note"><span class="notetitle">Note:</span> <img src="./delta.gif" alt="Start of change" />If you are saving from a second copy, you should ensure
that the contents of the copy are consistent. You may need to quiesce the
application.<img src="./deltaend.gif" alt="End of change" /></div>
These techniques include: </div>
<div class="section"><h4 class="sectiontitle">Saving from a second system</h4><p>Some technologies, such
as replication, make available a second copy of the data that can be used
to shift the save window from the primary copy to the secondary copy. This
technique can eliminate the backup window on the primary system. Therefore,
it does not affect production since the backup processing is done on a second
system. </p>

(ESS) provides enhanced storage capabilities. This technology uses the ESS
function of FlashCopy on
an independent disk pool. A single ESS server creates a point-in-time version
of the independent disk pool where the host is not aware of the copy. The
toolkit enables bringing the copy on to the backup system to perform saves
or other processing. For information on IBM TotalStorage (ESS) and its features,
