Often times the Media / Master server encounters and error and exits but
cant notify the Client (they don't even attempt to) It sounds like you have
at least some logs enabled on the Media server since you mention that you
reviewed the Bpbrm log. So review the Media Server logs to see if you can
get more information. What I often have seen is a network disconnect betwee=
n
the Client and the Media Server. This stops the backup as far as Bpbrm is
concerned but Bpbkar does not know about it, he just keeps churning through
data until he is done.
If this only happens on single client then it maybe something like a bad
port, Nic, Driver ect. If it only happens on one Policy but other policies
for that same client fail then you have a mystery on your hands. If you can
post the relevant logs so we can browse them a bit (Bpbrm, Bpbkar, Bptm to
start I would think)

Hope that helps
