So, I selected a specific Media (Disk SU) and disabled Indexing on the E: drive. Restarted NBU services (BPDOWN/BPUP) and then tried the Catalog Backup again..same result (error 2). Following is what i see in the job:
12/19/2012 10:44:04 PM - Info bpdbm(pid=4136) staging relational database files for catalog backup
12/19/2012 10:44:04 PM - Info bpdbm(pid=4136) staging NBAZDB backup to C:\Program Files\Veritas\NetBackupDB\staging

12/19/2012 10:44:38 PM - Info bpdbm(pid=4136) done staging NBDB backup to C:\Program Files\Veritas\NetBackupDB\staging
none of the requested files were backed up(2)
When i run the job, there are two jobs that are created, one is parent, second is child. Child dies first with the log up above. Parent dies with the following log in the details pane of the job:

Really not sure what i am doing wrong... it is straight forward and should be able to back itself up on E: drive (30GB size empty).
dpdbm logs are the same as noted above in previous posts. no change.
