It means that Networker has been able to contact the client
and start up a save for /home possibly getting some data.
Then no data has been  seen for 35 min.

Was this an incremental backup on a very large filesystem
with very few (if any) files modified?
In that case it might take 35 min + for the client software to
examine each file for modification and this will trigger the
timeout.

Another reason I have seen for this is that the network connection
broke during the save, somebody rebooted a switch or ripped the cable.
