Netbackup 7 Orphaned Jobs in Activity Monitor (Error Code 50)

Sometime in January I stopped a job from the activity monitor and it stopped with error code of 50.  I tried to lelete it from activity monitor but it did not delete..  After looking around Symantec Knolodge base I found a Technote that outlined the steps to delete the jobs database which removes orphaned jobs from the Activity Monitor.

1. stop NetBackup (bpdown) in the default folder: C:\Program Files\VERITAS\NetBackup\bin
2. bpps , kill the remaining processes
3. cd to install_path\veritas\netbackup\db\jobs
4. delete the bpjobd.act.db file  (Note: For Windows 2008, uncheck 'Hide extensions for known file types')
5. cd up to the restart folder
6. delete all files
7. cd..\trylogs
8. delete all files
9. cd..\ffilelogs
10. delete all files
11. restart NetBackup (bpup) in the default folder: C:\Program Files\VERITAS\NetBackup\bin
