OK, you seem to have something wrong somewhere:

If I run:
ls /usr/local/samba/var/lock/gencache_notrans.*

I get:
/usr/local/samba/var/lock/gencache_notrans.tdb

If I run your backup command:
tdbbackup -s .samba.bak /usr/local/samba/var/lock/gencache_notrans.tdb

I get no errors and if I then check again:
ls /usr/local/samba/var/lock/gencache_notrans.*

I get:

/usr/local/samba/var/lock/gencache_notrans.tdb 
/usr/local/samba/var/lock/gencache_notrans.tdb.samba.bak

What version of Samba am I using?

samba -V
Version 4.3.1

I think that you should answer the questions I asked in my previous post.
