Hello, You can always lookup DB2 SQL errors by launching the DB2 Command line interface as follows
db2 => ? sql-2428 SQL2428N The BACKUP did not complete because one or more of the requested log files could not be retrieved. Explanation: A backup that includes logs fails if any of the logs required for the successful rollforward recovery of the image cannot be retrieved and copied into the backup image. User response: Refer to the administration notification log for additional information about the cause of the failed log retrieval attempt. You must ensure that the archive log path does not contain log files that do not belong to the current database. If you used the log path previously for a database with the same name and did not remove those log files, conflicts might occur during log file retrieval. You must remove those log files from the archive log path or set the archive log path to a new destination before continuing. Correct the error and resubmit the command.
