/tmp/17394mkvgback.exec: can not execute

 ENV:
   AIX 4.2
   RISC C20
   sysback 3.3.3.16

*CUSTOMER REP:  Randy Orr

 PROBLEM:
  Customer is running a full system backup and is getting this
  error message:

  /tmp/17394mkvgback.exec: can not execute
  Unable to create File List. Check space in /tmp directory.

*ACTION TAKEN:
  I had the customer do this:

  1.  cd /usr/sbin
  2.  cp mkvgback mkvgback.org
  3.  vi mkvgback

  CHANGE THIS:
  ------------
  \# Execute and save output to temp file
   echo "$cmd" > $execfile
   chmod +x $execfile
   $execfile >> /tmp/$$filelist
   rc=$?

  TO THIS:
  --------
  \# Execute and save output to temp file
    set -x       \#ADD THIS LINE
   echo "$cmd" > $execfile
   chmod +x $execfile
   cp $execfile /tmp/test.file  \#ADD THIS LINE
   $execfile >> /tmp/$$filelist
   rc=$?

4.  Reran the command again and it failed in the same manner

5.  cd /
    /tmp/test.file   
      This worked with out any errors

6.  umask
      0117
   This should be 022
   Once that was set it worked
    

*ACTION PLAN:
  Closing with customer approval
