Semaphore timeout 1

[Jons100]

I have BE 9.0 with patches running on 15 servers. If I try and use the AOFO 90% of the servers backup no problem but always when the backup gets to 1 server I always receive 00000079 HEX, The Semaphore timeout period has expired. If I disable AOFO the server backs up with skipped files. I am runnging BE 9.0 on NT4 SP6a. Compaq various servers and 3 LTO 100 gig Drives. I have swapped the drives around just in case but still same problem. Any Ideas ???

Cleaning the drives might help, or try lowering the speed of the scsi id's the drive and servers are connected to

Tried the mentioned and still same problem. What I don't understand is that the error only appears when OFO is selected.
