I encountered a situation where the Master was busy doing backups all
day every day so bpsched  never had a chance to start a cleanup.  Our
catalog grew by a few GB every week until we found this technote:

You don't need to have the CLEAN_IN_BACKGROUND flag if you are forcing
the cleanup with the bpimage in cron.

Solaris 9 nbu 5.1 mp3=0D
I was recently told by a Symantec engineer that I should be running this
command once a week for database cleanup. Does anyone else run this? Are
there any gotcha's that I should know about before I run this command?

"Touch /usr/openv/netbackup/bin/CLEAN_IN_BACKGROUND then run
'/usr/openv/netbackup/bin/admincmd/bpimage -cleanup -allclients'. Watch
the disk associated with the /usr/openv/netbackup/db/images directory
and if you see significant cleanup occur (i.e. you get a large qty of
free disk back), then you should have the command run from cron weekly."
