Veritas NetBackup & RHEL 4

Hello,

We've used Veritas NetBackup to backup our RHEL 3 systems for awhile. 
No problems.  According to Veritas RHEL 4 is supported.

But when we try to backup a system that's RHEL 4, the backup fails
with some permission denied errors on certain files in /sys.

I think this might have something to do with /sys being a separate
partition in RHEL 4.  Anyone seen this problem?
