Hi,

Windows does not allow opening up one data file by multiple users at the
same time. Networker is not able to backup these files and needs the open
file manager.

Unix & Linux do not lock files and keep them accessible for other users. OFM
is not required there.

Hi Networkers,
Could any one please let me know why there are no open files during backup
from Unix/Linux clients like windows.

Thanks,
Srinivas Rao.
