Hey,

1. Please check network status in your environment. If the proxy servers lose communications with the Avamar grid, the backup will stop.

2. If the network is normal, please check your whether the backup time exceed "Backup Windows" time of Avamar server. If exceed "Backup Windows" time, you need to adjust "Backup Windows" on Avamar GUI. And start the backup job earlier if possible.

Hope this helpful.

Checking the Network connection and enable overtime for the next scheduled backup. This should solve the issue.
