Looks like you have more scheduled client sessions trying to start than
your system allows. Do a query status and see the "Maximum Scheduled
Session" line. If the backups are completing it means they are just
getting denied initially, then are able to grab a session sometime later
during their duration. I'd guess you would see the backups for these nodes
starting later than normal. If your server can handle it, try upping the
maximum scheduled sessions allowed. Or, you can move some of your backup
jobs around to lessen the load between 0200 and 0300.
