That's the correct way to do it, although I think BRMS comes into play as well, but start there.

Subject: Re: locking an ifs directory

Alan,

Have them exclude that directory from the backup. It's transient data that can be recovered without the tape anyway so it's not needed for a
recovery. Now you can just forget about all the locking etc.

Have Tom call me if he needs help doing that.
