Any Idea to solve this issue ?

Hi Tony,

I meant the output of "brtools -V". You should use at least 7.40 Patch Level 40.

example output:

...
release note 1838850
kernel release 740
patch date 2020-06-18
patch level 42
make platform linuxx86_64
make codeline 749_REL
make mode OCI_112
make date Jun 19 2020

Furthermore, do you use BACKINT maybe? Or is there a chance that the file gets locked and moved by any other software?
