Greetings All!

I am hoping some of the great minds that read this forum can help.

I have a policy  backing up one folder. It is scheduled to run a full on Thursday nights, hourly Cumulative Incrementals from 7 am to 11 pm, and a Synthetic Cumulative Incremental every night at 11:30.

The full and hourlys work fine but the Synthetic does not. The Detailed Status of the jobis posted below.

the requested operation was partially successful(1)

The job was successfully completed, but some files may have been
busy or unaccessible. See the problems report or the client's logs for more details.

From readin the log i thought that i configured something wrong, so i double checked everything. Then i tried to do a full synthetic back up and that works just fine. I am running out of things to check, so any ideas are welcome.
