Note, however, that if a file is being written into /p2/arch/log/file when the cron job starts running, you might copy the initial contents of file to /p2/bkp/file and never pick up data written to the end of the file after the copy completes.

Are files in /p2/arch/log being updated after all of the data that is initially written to them has been completed? If not and /p2/arch/log and /p2/bkp are on the same filesystem, did you consider just making a hard link from /p2/arch/log/file to /p2/bpk/file?
