Backup Exec 2010
Backup job to look across the network and backup an instance fo SQL
We setup an agent within a domain on a client running windows 7 64bit
The server is a Poweredge T610 Windows SBS 2008 Premium
Firstly I get this email Alert
1 files were skipped.
Note: The backup job was configured to use the Advanced Open File Option. However, files were skipped during backup processing. Please ensure that the Media Server NAME is properly licensed with the Advanced Open File Option, or that the job is properly targeted for media servers that are licensed with the Advanced Open File Option
Secondly the job shows as incomplete but the log shows as backup has worked?

These are exceptions (not errors), the Alert only says that the backup job itsels completed successfully, but it had to skip some files (exceptions) because they were either not present/open and in use/not accessible.
Make sure the files in question are not in use and are accessible by Backup Exec during the backup job window.
I'd also recommend you to create a seperate job for database selections (SQL/Exchange/SharePoint/etc) and not use Advanced Open File Option on that database backup job.
