FYI,
the issue appears to be a non public bug in the redhat linux version of dfm 3.3. command line backups fail but through the gui still functions. after dealing with support to identify this they recommended an upgrade to the current 3.4 release of dfm.

any dfm users out there? got another odd problem this time with dfm backup. if we issue a dfm backup command it runs through the steps but generates no backup file. it does spit out an error about not finding the db which i do not get...
dfm backup create DANIEL Adaptive Server Anywhere Backup Utility Version 9.0.2.2452 Database server not found Waiting for existing writes to stop, which could take a few minutes. Please be patient ... Creating the archive ... Deleting any temporary directories. Restoring performance advisor status. Deleting any database backup job from database.
no file called DANIEL exists anywhere that i can find...NOW did not result in a match on dfm backup issues.
