Windows backup - Socket Write Failed

MG11
Level 4

Windows server (WAS) backup is failing with error code 13. On checking bpbkar logs "socket write failed" error is observed.
We found that timezone on server and client were different, but even after correcting them issue was there. 
Then we tried a manual backup by unticking the BMR option in policy and the backup succeeded, as the backup was earlier trying to create a "tir" file.

Since Symantec BMR is required for Windows Client, so i need help to get this issue resolved.
