You may get alot of win32 errors like perf / etc... dont worry about them
they are rebuilt during a dr - anything win32 is rebuilt during a full
dr.

Thanks for the info and link, it explained what the qmgr files do.

Someone replied off the list, that I should configure VSP(Volume
Snapshot 
Provider). As far as I can tell VSP is used to backup open files. The
idea 
being I don't need to maintain sets of exclude lists, because netbackup
can 
just backup the open files. This all sounds wonderfull. The the problem
is I 
thought I had it enabled all ready.

On the client side of things there is no mention of it at all. From the
server 
bpclient seems to think its switched on.

# bpclient -client windowsbox -L
Client Name: windowsbox
 Current Host:
        Hostname: windowsbox
        IP Address: 0.0.0.0
 Connect on non-reserved port:  no
 No call-back connections:      no
 Dynamic Address:       no
 Free Browse:   Allow
 List Restore:  Not Specified
 Max Jobs This Client:  Not Specified
 WOFB Enabled:  yes
 WOFB FIM:      VSP
 WOFB Usage:    Individual Drive Snapshot
 WOFB Error Control:    Abort on Error

But I still get problems like:-
# bperror | awk '{if ($6 == 7069) print}' | grep WRN | head -1
1113788385 1 4 8 netbackupserver 7069 7068 0 sqlserver bpbrm from client

windowsbox: WRN - can't open file: C:\Documents and Settings\All 
Users\Application Data\Microsoft\Network\Downloader\qmgr0.dat (WIN32 32:

Unknown error)

Have I actually configured VSP? Is there a way to test it?

Regards
