We need output of:  

bppllist.exe -L MS32-BKP 
'bppllist.exe -U MS32-BKP '  will also be helpful.

This will show us your Backup Selection. 

My guess is that you have specified the Backup Selection as a Drive Letter?

Backup Selection for a network share must be specified as UNC path.
You also need to confirm that NetBackup Client Service is started as a domain account with sufficient permissions to the share.

first thank for your prompt reply :)

please find attached bpplist -L and -U.

please note that i have try to backup D:\  all the subdirectory are backing up only the this shared folder shown empty.

[Marianne]

As per my previous post - you need to specify UNC path: 

\\servername\sharename\folder

not the mounted drive letter and path.

The reason for this is that D:\path is only mounted when a user is logged on. When the backup is running, no user is logged on.
