RE: More automated backup

This is the solution we use. It is simple and will not waste any time. 

ENDSBS      SBS(QINTER) OPTION(*IMMED)               
MONMSG     MSGID(CPF1054) EXEC(GOTO CMDLBL(NOTACTIVE))           
ALCOBJ       OBJ((QINTER *SBSD *EXCL)) WAIT(900)      
MONMSG     MSGID(CPF1002) EXEC(ERROR)
