    Hi everyone

     

    little update - our BASIS team was using a powershell script to launch the batch jobs but the script itself seems flawed - if we launch the jobs using a modified vb script instead, it never crashes at the end, or at any time really.

    TL;DR --> Powershell is causing the SAP databases to unlock during backup, causing failure no matter what the timeout is set to.
