Cause
NetBackup Client service on media server is configured to log on as local system account.
Solution
Change NetBackup Client service (bpcd.exe) to an account with access to the remote share. For backups to work the NetBackup Remote Manager and Monitor Service (nbrmms.exe) may also need to be changed. See linked article below "Configuring credentials for CIFS and disk storage units," which contains steps on changing the log account associated with a service.
