We need output of: &nbsp;
bppllist.exe -L&nbsp;MS32-BKP&nbsp;
	'bppllist.exe -U&nbsp;MS32-BKP ' &nbsp;will also be helpful.
This will show us your Backup Selection.&nbsp;
My guess is that you have specified the Backup Selection as a Drive Letter?
Backup Selection for a network share must be specified as UNC path.
	You also need to confirm that NetBackup Client Service is started as a domain account with sufficient permissions to the share.

Can you please show us the policy list by:

etbackup\bin\admincmd\bppllist -L &lt;policyname&gt;
and what is the access-level set for the shared directory?

first thank for your prompt reply :)
please find attached bpplist -L and -U.
please note that i have try to backup D:\&nbsp; all the subdirectory are backing up only the this shared folder shown empty.
&nbsp;

marianne · Answer

As per my previous post - you need to specify UNC path:&nbsp;
\servername\sharename\folder
not the mounted drive letter and path.
The reason for this is that D:\path is only mounted when a user is logged on. When the backup is running, no user is logged on.
