other jobs are running at this time.. we are using thrird party tool( TDP backup) to take backups. Please help me in this issue... Many Thanks in advance.. gnreddy06, Jul 5, 2007 #2 satya Moderator Things to check: http://www.sqlservercentral.com/Forums/Topic1313430-1550-1.aspx - Ensure no anti-virus or anti-spyware tool is installed. - Ensure the SQLagent has relevant privileges to access the file. - Ensure the path & filename mentioned correctly. - If you are using third party tool to perform backup, then check whether the relevant drivers or fixes are updated.

2011 by Vinay I have seen another very common backup job failed error, when we check backup files generates successfully but job fails with following error Alert description: BackupDiskFile::CreateMedia: Backup https://thakurvinay.wordpress.com/2011/11/06/day-6-backup-job-failed-file-in-use-error-32/ device ‘xxx.bak' failed to create. Operating system error 32(The process cannot access the http://forums.databasejournal.com/showthread.php?29624-Cannot-access-backup-file-because-it-is-being-used-by-another-process file because it is being used by another process.). You could see that job is failed due to file is in use, generally we creates backup maintenance plan to take backup and after backup completes successfully we also include the maintenance cleanup task, which maintains the retention period of old backup files operating system to keep our Drive space free. For corporate companies they have a standard practice to keep backup of the database backup files upto 30 days to 90days just for safety and per DR process for that they use build in system or third party tool like VERITAS Net Backup. Sometimes “Antivirus “ application also scans backup files which holds the file could cause this issue. operating system error Note: Should exclude database files for these scans. So sometimes when our cleanup task runs during that time netbackup or other application holding this backup file, due to that our backup job fails at cleaning up task with given error. Resolution: >> Re-Schedule the net-backup or our maintenance plan task to run at different time. >> Exclude the antivirus scan for database files and backup files.

BackupDiskFile::CreateMedia: Backup device 'F:\MSSQL\BACKUP\Full_Backup.BAK' failed to create. Operating system error = 32(The process cannot access the file because it is being used by another process.). There are no other jobs running that access this file during the backup. So nothing else should be trying to touch the backup file. Rerunning the backup again seems to work so it does sound like something is accessing the backup file, I just can't figure out what. The backup proc reinitializes the backup file each time it runs with the init parameter and then appends remaining backups with noinit. This error occurs on several different servers. Could there be a problem reinitializing the same backup device? It seems like a previous backup has not let go of the device. I am running SQL 2000 SP2 on Windows 2000 SP2. Any ideas?
