sysback hangs
I've set sysback to run in the cron daily to backup my servers to a nim servers SAN storage. Every once and a while the backup process hangs and the backup doesn't complete. When I check the processes the sysback processes are still running hours after sysback would normally end. I don't see any errors in the error log. Any ideas on what may cause sysback to hang? Where can I find sysback logs to see if sysback has errors?
