Logon to AIX on the standby node using the DB2 instance owner, “user”.

Deactivate the database BPMDB using the following command “db2 deactivate database BPMDB”

Start the standby HADR on BPMDB using the following command “db2 start hard on db BPMDB as
standby”

Logon to AIX on the primary node using the DB2 instance owner, “<Username>”.

Start the standby HADR on BPMDB using the following command “db2 start hard on db BPMDB as
standby”
Following command can be used to check the HADR status on both the
