[VERITAS 9.0] tmp file not deleted after full backup

[0152572796]

Dear tek-tips users.

Im new to the forum (As user though) ive read alot here alraidy through my friend google
Now i have this problem i cant get fixxed.

I run 5 Backups a week on veritas 9.0 Using a tape drive.

mon-thu i run differential backups and on friday i run a full backup.
After the full backup on Friday the tmp file on a remote machine is not deleted. After a reboot on the remote machina the file is gone. If i have done that the differential backups run fine and delete the file. After the next full backup the file is back and not deleted.
I checked the settings between both backup jobs and there execly the same. They also run the same backup job.
So i dont understand...

one more detail about the full backup on friday:
It uses more than 1 tape ( 2 tapes to be precise) dont know if that can be involved with it.

Can anybody help me with this. been searching for an anwser for weeks.

Thanks, any help is much appriciated.

Not sure about the temp file but Backup Exec should not be creating any tmp file unless you talking about the AOFO advanced open file option tmp file.

If that is the case firt you will need to upgrade to Backup Exec 9.1 with SP5 and re-push all the agent.
9.0 is no longer support as 9.1 is EOL shortly.

If AOFO us being used the again upgrade then make an exlusion in you antivirus software to exlude .tmp file.

I am indeed using AOFO

Not using a Virusscanner (Only mcafee groupshield for exchange)

So the file wont be helt bij a virusscan. And why would it only happen on a full backup ?

Full backup the AOFO cache file is probably larger. Lots of issue fixed in 9.1 SP5

Also I would make the following change on you media server and restart the services. This only applies to 9.1 and greater.
