Back Up the Informix Database 
Perform a complete backup of the Informix database just before the beginning of the 
maintenance window. This ensures that you have the latest copy of the database 
before the start of the upgrade. For example, if this process typically takes 45 
minutes to complete, then begin this process 45 minutes before the maintenance 
window begins. 
Procedures for backing up the database are contained in DBDS Backup and Restore 
Procedures For SR 2.2 Through 4.3 User Guide
 (part number 4013779). If necessary, call 
Cisco Services to obtain a copy of these backup and restore procedures.
