Netbackup Gurus! Aside from cycling the Netbackup processes, what else can be done if the /usr/openv directory starts filling up close to 100%? This has happened to us in the past and has caused NB to come to a halt! We've recently added 30 extra gig to our Unix Master Server (Solaris 8, SUN...

Fellow NB users, I wanted to check to see what you have done to resolve any restore issues where it is taking long for a request to be processed and eventually load the media tape? Our environment is Solaris 8, using an IBM 3584 LTO Tape Library, using NB 4.5 FP3 on SUN. Currently working on a...
