Notes/Domino 6 and 7 Forum : Strange problem on scheduled shutdown restart of server

I have a strange problem where our domino server doesnt appear to come back online correctly after a scheduled shutdown, backup and restart.

Our system is Domino 7.0.2 on Linux (CentOS 4.7). I have a script which stops the Domino service, copies the /data directory to a mounted network share, and then starts Domino again once its complete.

It works fine when I call the script manually from the command line. It also "appears" to run fine as a scheduled cron job which I have set to run at 3am every 2nd day. But when I get to work the next morning after it has been scheduled the server logs are full of entries like this:

10/08/2009 04:21:08 11:40
10/08/2009 04:21:10 33:BB
10/08/2009 04:21:10 33:BE
10/08/2009 04:21:10 33:02
10/08/2009 04:21:10 33:9A
10/08/2009 04:21:11 33:6F
10/08/2009 04:21:22 33:70
10/08/2009 04:21:32 33:60
10/08/2009 04:21:32 33:61
10/08/2009 04:21:32 33:53
10/08/2009 04:21:33 33:54
10/08/2009 04:21:37 33:60
10/08/2009 04:21:37 33:61

These entries appear the moment the server is restarted and the whole log file is full of them.

There is also one particular email database that has a corrupted inbox every single time and cant be opened? The only other problem I have noticed is a corrupted search index on another database. After I restart the Domino server manually using the same stop/start script which the backup script calls, it comes back up fine and the logs start recording as normal?

I originally thought I was interrupting a scheduled nightly task on the domino server with the backup so I disabled compact for the nights the backup runs and reviewing the logs before the backup runs I dont see any other server tasks running at that time?

Can anyone see what the problem may be?
