Look at using Hot Catalog backups.  They work much better and they can
run during backups.

Subject: [Veritas-bu] Catalog Backups

I just upgraded NBU from v5.0MP7 to v6.0MP5 and have some unusual
behavior concerning the Catalog Backups. With the previous version the
catalog backup would run when the scheduled backups were completed for
the day. We have some policies that are for Oracle backups using the
Oracle agent and those wouldn't kick off a catalog backup after they
ran. After the upgrade we now have catalog backups running anytime an
Oracle backup is finished executing which means we have several catalog
backups a day. We've had some backup failures when a catalog backup is
running at the same time a new Oracle backup is trying to start. I've
checked the Offline Catalog backup configuration and it is set for
"After each session of scheduled backups". As the Oracle backups aren't
"scheduled" by Netbackup but initiated from the client I not sure what's
going on.

Any help would be appreciated. 

Thanks in advance, Ed.
