proper way of backup

There are two backup methods:
1) binary database backup (db2bak, db2bak.pl) - this useful for short term backups - the backups are quick and easy to restore from
2) LDIF database dump (db2ldif, db2ldif.pl) - this is useful for long term backups
All of these can be used while the server is running.
