Gerald, RC=1914 means "RC_SQL_API_FAILURE" which means that the SQL backup API returned an error. HRESULT:0x80042329 is coming from the SQL server and it means error "9001" (hex 2329 in decimal is 9001) with severity 10. Check the SQL Server log to find any clues. Does this backup work manually? Does it just fail when it is scheduled? See if this makes a difference... "tempdb" is always excluded from backup by default. I am not sure why the SQL Server is looking to access the tempdb in this case. Try doing a differential backup on that database with the backup tool shipped with SQL server. Does it fail also? If you still cannot get things to work, please call IBM support. Thanks, Del ---------------------------------------------------- Del Hoobler IBM Corporation [EMAIL PROTECTED] "Celebrate we will.
