DB2: take offline backup

 Stop tcpip connections like so:

db2set db2comm=

db2 force applications all; db2stop

db2 list applications  <-- to see if there are any connections

db2start


**note WSDBA is an account that has SYSADM, SYSCTRL or SYSMAINT privileges

[wsdba@dev601 dev1ins1 ~]     

$ db2 backup database wcdev1 to /usr/opt/app/dbdump  compress without prompting



when complete do the following


db2set db2comm=tcpip

db2stop

db2start


ps -ef | grep db2sysc  <-- to see which databases are up/down


confirm that applications reconnect
