it maybe a lot of work without any tools but for this question:
How can we backup user data (not OS) on regular basis using OS commands ? incremental or full backups ?
Since you are taking a mksysb and hopefully on a remote server, depending on what the situations are like, allocate a new LUN make this a backup drive, use something like rsync to make the backups for you. I'm not really sure this will do incremental backups though.

Hi all,
I'm trying to get an understanding of swap. This is what I see:
Memory: 8192M real, 1697M free, 5693M swap in use, 10G swap free

Thanks much,

INSTALL(1) User Commands INSTALL(1)NAME
ginstall - copy files and set attributes
SYNOPSIS
install [OPTION]... SOURCE DEST (1st format)
install [OPTION]... SOURCE... DIRECTORY (2nd format)
install -d [OPTION]... DIRECTORY... (3rd format)
DESCRIPTION
In the first two formats, copy SOURCE to DEST or multiple SOURCE(s) to the existing DIRECTORY, while setting permission modes and
owner/group. In the third format, create all components of the given DIRECTORY(ies).
Mandatory arguments to long options are mandatory for short options too.
--backup[=CONTROL] make a backup of each existing destination file
-b like --backup but does not accept an argument
-c (ignored)
-C Install file, unless target already exists and is the same as the new file, in which case the modification time won't be changed.
-d, --directory
treat all arguments as directory names; create all components of the specified directories
-D create all leading components of DEST except the last, then copy SOURCE to DEST; useful in the 1st format
-g, --group=GROUP
set group ownership, instead of process' current group
-m, --mode=MODE
set permission mode (as in chmod), instead of rwxr-xr-x
-o, --owner=OWNER
set ownership (super-user only)
-p, --preserve-timestamps
apply access/modification times of SOURCE files to corresponding destination files
-s, --strip
strip symbol tables, only for 1st and 2nd formats
-S, --suffix=SUFFIX override the usual backup suffix
-v, --verbose
print the name of each directory as it is created
--help display this help and exit
--version
output version information and exit
The backup suffix is `~', unless set with --suffix or SIMPLE_BACKUP_SUFFIX. The version control method may be selected via the --backup
option or through the VERSION_CONTROL environment variable. Here are the values:
none, off
never make backups (even if --backup is given)
numbered, t
make numbered backups
existing, nil
numbered if numbered backups exist, simple otherwise
simple, never
always make simple backups
