What happens to the incremental copies that you continue to create on all other days?

Your current backup strategy is to run COPY SHRLEVEL CHANGE for all your table spaces each night. You create FULL image copies once a week and INCREMENTAL copies during the rest of the days. After migrating to DB2 10, you plan to create the FULL image copies using FLASHCOPY YES and COPYDDN, that is you create a flash copy image copy (FCIC) and additionally a sequential copy. What happens to the incremental copies that you continue to create on all other days?
A. If DSNZPARM FLASHCOPY_COPY is set to YES, the incremental copies will automatically be incremental FLASHCOPY copies.
B. Nothing special. The only difference is that the FULL copy, which is the basis for the subsequent incremental copies has now been generatedfrom the FCIC.
C. The COPY utilities with FULL NO option will not run. If there are entries in SYSIBM.SYSCOPY that indicate that FCICs exist for a give page set,INCREMENTAL copies cannot be taken anymore.
D. The first image copy utility execution after the FULL FCIC and sequential copy created from the FCIC will end up as FULL copy although youspecify the FULL NO statement on the COPY utility control statement.
