I am not AIX guru so, please, dont shoot me :-)). I have shell script, backupon.sh for online backup of database with this contens: #!/bin/sh su - devadm "-c db2 backup db DEV online use tsm" Backup works fine, when I run script on foreground. At least backup works fine when I run "dsmc sched" on foreground (under root user) and make schedule on TSM server to run this script. But backup don't work, when I run scheduler on background with "nohup dsmc schedule 2> /dev/null &" as described in TSM client user's guide. Script ends with return code 127. Running script with cron aends with error return code too. Any advice for one poor, miserable, devasted and bleeding AIX non-specialist and cookie-eater? Thanks Tomas
