> Hi,
> 
>       I am testing the upgrade of Netview from version 6.0.2 to 6.0.3 on
> our AIX 4.2.1 server, but have experienced a problem with the NVPATCH
> backout facility supplied on the 6.0.3 CD. After closing down the
> application (using ovstop, ovstop nvsecd and nettl -stop) and ensuring
> that there are no processes using the /usr/OV filesystem, I start the
> backout process to restore from a snapshot taken earlier. This snapshot
> was taken using the same facility and with Netview down. During the
> backout process, I receive the following messages  "cp: /usr/OV/lib/(x)
> Cannot open or remove a file containing a running program" where (x) is
> libcollection.a, libntl.a, libov.a, libovsnmp.a and libovw.a. To determine
> what was using the files at the time, I used the utility lsof and found
> that the only processes using the /usr/OV filesystem at the time of the
> copies was the compress from NVPATCH. I have also tried running slibclean
> (in case the files used were still memory resident) and tried the backout
> again, but I had the same results.
>       As I am no longer confident of the integrity of the backout, has
> anyone else come across this situation and know of a resolution?
> 
> Thanks In Advance.
