Hi Jose,
I am not familiar to the DB2 backup process, but what looks strange to me,
is that the db2 restore seems to use the tape blockdevice (/dev/btibm0). Is
the backup really written as an ISO 9660 file to the tape and is the tape
mounted as a blockdevice afterwards for db2 restore? If not, /dev/btibm0 is
the wrong device to use in the pedro script. It should be /dev/rtibm0 or
/dev/ntibm0.
