Hard to tell... if its generated by Bacula you should have that path somewhere in the configuration... grep would find it then. If you can't find where it is created, see if that file is modified or created recently. If it's accessed regularly, use lsof when the file is accessed to find out which process uses the file. Guessing from the name and location, that file might be created during catalog backups. In that case, a Run After Job script to delete it after the catalog backup is run would be reasonable.
