When I took over backups a while back after transfering in, they were
having the same issue and nothing we did worked.

Truthfully, I ended up going in the other direction, taking their
scripts "that should be working" and turning them into cron jobs which
worked flawlessly.

The scripts have since become a single script with a config file per
server but we never went back to letting NetBackup try to run things -
it just seemed to do it really badly.
