I think if you're going to use SHRDYNAMIC you might as well use DYNAMIC.
How many files actually close within a few seconds? I've seen many
instances where a large file will be attempted three times
(CHANGINGRETRIES - 1, usually) and then be backed up on the fourth try.
This means we move a bunch more data than we need to trying something that
isn't going to change anyway. If you can get a usable copy of an open file,
back it up while open the first time.

Subject: SHRDYNAMIC or SHRSTATIC?
I am presently reviewing our backup policies, and I see that we are using
SHRSTATIC, but it seems to me it
would make more sense to use SHRDYNAMIC, which eventually forces the backup
of open files.
Is there a reason not to use SHRDYNAMIC?
Best regards,
Dan.
