LOCKED_FILE_ACTION option for NetBackup clients
The LOCKED_FILE_ACTION entry specifies the behavior of NetBackup when it backs up a file that has mandatory file locking enabled in its file mode. (See chmod(1)). If this entry is set to SKIP, NetBackup skips the files that currently have mandatory locking set by another process. NetBackup logs a message to this effect.
