 Error 13 - A read of a file or socket failed. Possible causes could be:

? I/O error reading from the file system.
? Read of an incomplete or corrupt file.
? Socket read failing. A socket read failure can be caused by a network problem or a problem with the process that is writing to the socket.
? A problem specific to NetBackup Advanced Client (see recommended actions).


Please check the read/write permission of backup directory. 
enable debug logging, rerun the backup, wait for failuer, and check bpbkar logs.

Hi Zaad,

how much time did the backup take before failing ? Check if the drive can be defragmented to enhance performance. 
try copying a very large flle (10-15 Gb) from the client server to the media server  to identify if this is a issue with the OS or with network.

Status code 13 is rather ambigous. It can be caused by many factors. I'd recommend to check bpbkar logs on a client.

Which SP have been applied? I recommend to apply W2K3 SP2.
I got winsock 10054 error(connection reset by peer) error in paticular situation, and after applying SP2 works fine.
But I don't know which MS fix in SP2 affected.
