Ok some things to check.....

Make sure TRACKER.exe is NOT running. Check TASK MANAGER
Ensure VSS is turned OFF within NetBackup - goto your HOST PROPERTIES /
Master Server / Properties
Click on the CLIENT ATTRIBUTES button on the left
Click on ADD
Enter the Client Server
On the right side of the screen, choose the Windows Open File Backup TAB
If its ticked, turn off!

NOTE: You may have to restart all services for changes to take effect. I
find, that stopping and restarting the netbackup client service on the
client helps!!

Re-start the backup again.

ALSO, make sure NO other BPBxxxx.exe processes are running... Bpbkar for
example!

Sorry, 

It is a win 2003 server backing up imported disks. It only happens on this
client.

What is happening is, we are snapping the disks of one server and mounting
them on the win 2003 media server, then backing up to tape. When the backup
starts it sits for two hours like the ex. Below:

8/31/2006 5:30:19 AM - started process bpbrm (5032)
8/31/2006 5:30:25 AM - connecting
8/31/2006 5:30:33 AM - connected; connect time: 00:00:08 8/31/2006 5:30:34
AM - started process bptm (5668) 8/31/2006 5:30:36 AM - mounting LTO246
8/31/2006 5:31:14 AM - mounted; mount time: 00:00:38 8/31/2006 5:31:17 AM -
positioning LTO246 to file 2 8/31/2006 5:32:46 AM - positioned LTO246;
position time: 00:01:29 8/31/2006 5:32:46 AM - begin writing

Well what is your setup?? Your Netbackup setup?

Is it windows? A Windows client perhaps? If so, is tracker.exe running on
the clients or your main server?

Check If there are bpbkar.exe processes running for long periods too!

More info please....

Thanks

Hello all,

I have a backup that sits for about two hours before it starts writing. Any
ideas on why this happens.

TIA
