I am trying set up a scheduled online back of a database, but have not been successful. I either get a "The database is currently in use" or "Online backup is not allowed because either logretain or userexit for roll-forward is not activated, or a backup pending condition is in effect for the database" error.

All I need to accomplish is to get a scheduled backup once a day. Transactions/database changes in between are not important.

How can I accomplish this? I have searched IBM's web site and googled, but have got no where. I am about to tear my hair out. Can someone pleas help?

Thanks
