  In the initial backup process, the system spent a considerable amount of time scanning temporary files in the database, even though these files get removed once their tasks are completed. This caused unnecessary delays, particularly in databases with a high volume of tempfiles.

During the investigation of a long-running backup issue (which was unrelated to tempfiles), the backup vendor suggested a fix to streamline the process by skipping these non-existent files.

• Backup Process Optimization:
  The backup process has been modified to skip tempfiles more efficiently, reducing the time spent on backup operations for databases with temp files.

• Warning Messages:
  Despite the changes, warning messages about missing tempfiles during the backup process still occur. However, these messages do not affect the success or timing of the backup.

Next Steps for Other Databases:

• If any other databases use tempfiles and experience similar backup inefficiencies, the backup team can implement the same adjustments.
• Action Required: Coordinate with the backup team to apply the fix for any new databases with tempfiles.

Reference and Future Assistance:

• This document serves as a reference in case any similar database configurations require changes in the future.
