backing up Open Files

drives
Not applicable
I am trying to backup files onto a local (SCSI) tape drive with Backup Exec. However the job completes with exceptions because some files were open and not backed up.
 
Is there a way to backup files that are in use?

What files are they?
 
Symantec would be happy to sell you one AOFO (Advanced Open File Option) for each server that you backup, but you may not really need them, depending in what files they are
