[cciug] .nfsXXXX files on NetApp filer interfere with ClearCase remove operations ...

We have a couple of Sun servers running CCase 4.2P3, with
VOB (db's too, not just pools) and view storage on a NetApp
F740 filer. We have configured the system as per Rational's
whitepaper on using NAS (network attached storage.)

The problem we are having is as follows. When we delete a
VOB or a view that resides on the filer, the filer creates
.nfsXXX files that cause the remove operation (e.g., rmvob)
to fail. I believe these files are created by renaming files
that are open when they are being deleted.

I'd like to know if anyone else has run into this, and if
they found a credible solution for the problem.
