Exchange 2013 backups complete with status code 0 on Netbackup however last backup time stamp on exchange doesn't update

Hi All,

I'm facing a strange issue with exchange backups. The backup complete successfully with status code 0 however the exchange admin reports that the last backup time stamp within exchange does not update. I was wondering if anyone has seen similar issue and can help troubleshoot it.Thanks

    Thanks sdo. Its a DAG with 9 databases.The backup policy is setup to use the DAG name as the client name with three node sever name mentioned in the preferred server list. Also its setup to backup from the Passive copy only.

    I'm using the -status switch in query and the output is same when checked from any of three servers in the DAG.

    If you look at the attached screenshots you will notice that though there was a successful full backup of all 9 databses on 10th Jan exchange doesnt show the updated backup time stamps.

    Is that a feature of MS Exchange?

    Is this a DAG?  Checked time stamp on all passive and active copies?
