To run a full log, on the master server 
use <install path> veritas\netbackup\logs then run mklogdir.bat
by double clicking on the bat file - 

OK  becuase some files will always be open, Do you have TIR on?
For True image Veritas will have to cache and create a TIR -
Not saying remove TIR - But possibly depending on your IDR?

To  find out what files and errors that are not being backed up 
becuase they are open - 1. Run all entries or all backup errors reports.
Then Checkout the files that cannot backup becuase they are open, pagefiles
don't mean jack, using VSP or OTM whatever slows down backups
unless really needed turn that off, disable VSP, VSSP and OTM - These
should be used for files that may close during backups, users on?

IF these are SQL files then notify the SQL amdins and ask the about these
open files, they probably have a backup for SQL at hand that you  backup
already?
