BACKUp errors

DB2 V8.1.5.449 OS Win2003

I have a .bat file that issues a db2 backup command in the scheduled tasks. when it runs, it finishes with rc=8 and the db is not backed up. where can i see the errors?

Thanks,
Craig

Error messages go to the standard output stream. You can redirect it to a file in you batch and look at the SQL error code. There also may be something in the db2diag.log file.

Does the batch file run OK if you invoke it from the command line?

Code:

backup.bat > backup.log
