I have a client that is kicking off DB2 backups via cron job, there is an issue with the backup and I killed it but it keeps starting again.
is this normal?
What am I missing?

Hi
Please connect to db2 server and cat /etc/CommVaultRegistry/Galaxy/Instance001/Db2Agent/.properties
Verify if it has sDb2ThresholdALFS & sDb2ThresholdALFN key is set
command line db2 log backups are initiated when it meets one of the criteria
| Additional setting | Category | Type | Value |
|---|---|---|---|
| Db2Agent | String | The size of the DB2 archive log files, in MB, that triggers the software to start a log backup. If you want the log files to go directly to media, set the value to 1. | |
| Db2Agent | String | The number of DB2 archive log files that triggers the software to start a log backup. If you want the log files to go directly to media, set the value to 1. |
In case if those parameters need to be adjusted, please do not edit the .properties file but navigate to the commvault console and adjust them from additional settings tab from the client properties advanced tab.
Let me know in case of any other questions.
