Error description

• Server will log following error message in activity log after a
  transaction is aborted by the client before sending any data to
  the Server:
  
  ANR9999D_3884588723 BfCloseOpenAggr(bfcreate.c:nnnn)
  Thread<xxxxxx>: Invalid size(0) for open aggregate.
  
  ANE4007E (Session: 446061, Node: NODE_XYZ)  Error processing
  '/some/file/name': access to the object is denied (SESSION:
  yyyyyy)
  
  The ANR9999D_3884588723 message can safely be ignored as the
  Tivoli Storage Manager/IBM Spectrum Protect Server should not
  issue this message. The real cause for this message is message
  ANE4007E, which requires further investigation.
  
  This can also occur for other ANExxxxE errors, it is not just
  limited to ANE4007E.

  Tivoli Storage Manager Server 7.1.x on all supported platforms
  IBM Spectrum Protect Server 8.1.x on all supported platforms
