Others reasons for backups not completing on UNIX servers are:
The O/S on the client has been reloaded and the TSM/ADSM software is
missing
Stale NFS handles - this is usually when a filesystem was mounted to
something that no longer exists.
There is a hardware problem on the client filesystem that it is trying to
back up.

Subject: Possible reasons for "Missed" backups?
Using the QUERY EVENT command, I see a list of completed, missed, and
failed
backups.
I assume that the 'missed' are due to a defunct/inactive client scheduler,
or a loss of connectivity to the host.
Are there other possible reasons, perhaps scheduling oriented or otherwise,
to explain why a client is 'missed'?
