Offline backup hangs

Offline backup hangs
Fri, 29 Feb 2008 11:47:14 +010
Hi,

I did a fresh install of DB2 8.1 with fixpack 16 on 64 Bit Linux for 
Intel (DB2/LINUXX8664 8.2.9). Install completed without any errors.

Next I created the sample database to test the installation. Everything 
works fine, except that I cannot perform a backup. Whenever I run 
something like "db2 backup database sample to /tmp" (Also tried
various 
options here), the backup process hangs. That is, I can see the backup 
file in /tmp is created and is 8.1 Mb in size. I left the backup running 
over night and in the morning it still hadn't finished and the size of 
the backup in /tmp was still 8.1 Mb.

Has anyone experienced this before? And more important, does anyone know 
how to fix this?

Many thanks in advance,
