You are not alone. And sometimes they persist after a reboot (which
means I move the /usr/openv/netbackup/db/jobs/bpjobd.act.db to a backup
name prior to restarting NBU).
=20
I used to have success killing the child bpsched PID (listed as "Active
PID") but the last couple of times I tried that, it caused the primary
bpsched process to restart....dropping all active backups. So I don't
do that anymore and just wait for a bounce and tell ops to ignore the
phantom jobs.
=20
I don't know but I suspect if bpsched gets a breather it might clean
this up, but my bpsched never gets a breather so I don't know.

I have several jobs that are stuck in "active" mode but not doing
anything.=20
JobID Type State Status Policy Schedule
Client Dest Media Svr Active PID
9716 Backup Active inbound ftpif
foo.com foo.com 5376=20
9018 Backup Active inbound ftpif
foo.com foo.com 19580=20
9845 Backup Queued DBArchive Oracle-Policy
bar.com=20
9844 Backup Queued DBArchive Oracle-Policy bar.com=20
I tried to kill the job with:=20
bpdbjobs -cancel 9716=20
to no avail. The FAQ-O-Matic says I need to restart NBU and manually
delete the db files? Is this accurate or is there an easier way to clean
these buggers up?
Thanks.=20
