The backup has failed 3 nights in a row now.
Night 1 (Tues 3rd), the verify on the backup failed as the verify stopped responding at 33%, to stop the verify all services had to be stopped and restarted again, so no useful logfiles on failure created, just failure to communicate with agent (as I stopped it).
Night 2 backup failed with
e00084f8 - The network connection to the Backup Exec Remote Agent has been lost. Check for network errors.
The backup agent service had crashed some 1:45 mins after the backup starting and was stopped.
I restarted the service.

Tonight is the permanently kept monthly backup and I need it to work.
The backup had been running fine for the past several weeks with no problems, no alterations have been made to any settings.
They system is a Windows 2003 server, backing up data only on itself, mainly MS EXchange, to an IOMEGA SCSI REV Drive. A full backup is approx 22GB.
Veritas version is 10 with hotfix 7, 8, 16 and service pack 1 installed.
