One of my colleagues is running a weekly backup process on our servers. He is hitting one of my SQL Server databases, as part of the overall backup process. He gets the following error messages:
File opening error -\\trackingDB_feed\D$\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\MSSQL12.AFL_FEED_SQL\MSSQL\DATA\Admin_Log.mdf: The process cannot access the file '\\trackingDB_feed\D$\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\MSSQL12.AFL_FEED_SQL\MSSQL\DATA\Admin_Log.mdf' because it is being used by another process.

I would think these messages are benign, right. I mean, some parts of the database are always on, and they don't get turned off during the backup process and then get turned on again, so I'm guessing things are fine as-is. Can someone confirm?
Thanks!
Knowledge is the only thing that I can give you, and still retain, and we are both better off for it.
