Backup-Restore problem

[gorros]

I have a server where I can't restore backups, even if they are taken at the same server (see command-lines below).
It is DB2 8, fixpack 10

Please, anyone who can help?

D:\>db2 create db xxx on d
DB20000I The CREATE DATABASE command completed successfully.

D:\>db2 backup db xxx to d:\x

Backup successful. The timestamp for this backup image is : 20080311163520


D:\>db2 restore db xxx from d:\x
SQL2570N A database cannot be restored on a platform that does not match the
platform on which the backup image was created.

D:\>

Interesting problem. :)

Can you give some details like platform, DB2 version etc.

One possibility is to check if there are some other images at d:\x. I am not sure of this but you can give it a try. Remove the contents from this directory and then try the BACKUP and RESTORE.

If I find something else, I will let you know. Thanks

I tried reproducing it but it passed for me on FP16. :(

Can you also attach the db2diag.log file. Just clean this file before reproducing the error. This will keep it smaller.
