Hi!
Cu see this error message:

I look here by EMC and find old cases with 6.1.1
Ignore this message
My cu have 7.3 (SUN version) and the Server save his own filesystem.
It is NOT a database.
We cannot restore it for tests, because cu have no space to test it and no server to test, that the saveset is ok.
Is the WARNING true or we have here a wrong notice?

Don't trust anyone - cu included
If you are able to reproduce this with 7.3.1 (so update is required) and prove that message is incorrect as file is not open (on Solaris you can easily check that with system tools) and the you have material - otherwise I don't trust what cu says. Try to check it out yourself.1238

Error != warning. I didn't say it was error, I said it was warning.
Also it did say that size shrunk - this means it did change during the save of the file. This usually happens with live DBs, logs or any other file being operated at that time. I would say from error you have listed that gz archive was being updated or created at the time when backup was trying to pick it up. If you get that each time, I would write directive to skip it up.1238

I not realy understand, what you mean.
Is this error real, why we can ignore it?
Cu have this error new. But I think it is not normal to see one error message and ignore it.
And why EBS think, alle files have the same size?

I talk with my cu again, and it is not so easy with him.
I order ls -lu and fuser, but this files are not longer on the system
I say to him, that we cannot realy say, that not any process have his finger on the file, by this backup.
The error comes up only one time.
But he ask me, why the saveset think, the backup is 4062MB ?
And why the file all 4294967295 bytes?
Cu say, that the size is not correct and the saveset must larger then 4062MB.
Succeeded with warning(s): epbup

Do mminfo on /raid4 for that backup instance and see what does it get repiorted for totalsize/sumsize pair. Then you can do nsrinfo for given nsavetime.1238

Tahnks.
I close the case. My cu will look, this problem comes back again.
But I think the problem is his script.
