Jim,
I'm using pax because that is supported in the SMH interface and my assistant admin can better do restores with that interface. I was also told by HP support that fbackup is the old way and pax is a better approach.
I've got the 'invalid=bypass' option working and that has eliminated most of the socket file errors. But there is still a handful of "skipped socket file" entries in the log that causes the backup to show as failed. For example:
/var/tmp/.java_pid2090 : Skipped socket file.
/opt/commvault/Base64/Temp/8400 : Skipped socket file.
Any thoughts on how to deal with these?
Thanks!
Joe
