Martin,

My macro is almost exactly like yours except that I am backing up the volhist
first. It goes like this:

 backup volhist file=/sys/logs/adsm/volhist.%1
 del volhist todate=today-7 type=dbbackup
 backup db devc=atl3590 type=full scratch=no vol=%2

When I separated the commands out into one batch command at a time, it works. So
that's how I am running right now. I have called back to IBM and reopened the
PMR. My server is at 2.1.0.9 and my AIX client is at 2.1.0.2.

Thanks for the response.
