Hi,
Having managed to get the Flashbackup-Windows policy to validate (problem with the firewall) now I am getting an Error 13 each time the backup runs.
The snapshot part of the policy completes without error and the backup start Ok but gets to about 400128Kb and 325500 Files and terminates with the following in the activity monitor:

The data area is approx 3Tb in size and is comprised of millions of small files, this is sat on a 10Tb disk so I know that the snap space is adequate >15% could this soley be down to IO issues whist backing up the snap from the same disk, also is there any rules that need to be followed when using an alternative host for the backup IO?
The backup is curently being performed onto a B6200 using OST
