Major NAS NDMP Backup issues: please help if you can...

Hi Everyone,

I am having major issues trying to backup my NAS filesystems.  I seem to
be getting a lot of the messages below.  I am trying to use NDMP backups
with my EMC NS704G.  I am still trying to find what this exact issue is,
but was wondering if anyone has ever seen this before?  Any help is
appreciated.  Thanks!
