Hi

New to EMC networker,

How to extract db2 backup image from EMC networker to disk. Like how we do for logs nsrdb2rlog.

I am not a db expert. However, the information you need can be found in the appropriate NMDBA Admin Guide, available from the product specific download page.

To receive the backup (NW: save set) indexes, you need to use the NW Admin GUI or the appropriate command directly.
The general syntax is as follows:

mminfo [-s nw_server] -q "query_parameter(s)" -r "report_parameter(s)" [-o sort_options] [-x delimiter_options] [> output_file]

All details and some examples can be found in the NW Command Line Reference for 'mminfo'.

Hi, I am posting here, for I also would like to explore the solution as a newbie.
In particular, I would be happy to learn if EMC networker are protected from ransomware attacks, or I rather meant to say if anyone has experience in protecting the data with that system from invaders like CryptXXX ([URL unfurl="true"]http://nabzsoftware.com/types-of-threats/crypt-file[/url])

I don't really understand what you mean.

NW has a bunch of built-in authentication and firewall mechanisms to check and protect data transfers.

But if you ask whether NetWorker code will be protected against malware the answer would be: of course not. NW itself is not an 'anti-virus software'.
If so, it would need to be permanently updated with an appropriate server. This is not the case.
Consequently, NetWorker files will also not be protected against malware.
