I am facing some typical error while taking the Portal Backup from the front end servers. It was working fine for many days 2 days back it started throwing error.
This is medium Server Farm Setup, with data getting stored on SAN .
My data size is approx 20 GB
Below are the error message captured in event viewer while taking the Portal backup using spsbackup.exe.

Error captured in SharePoint Front end server

SQL Server backup failed. Error: There is not enough disk space on server SPDB to complete the database sps_site operation. Increase the space available and try again. , Server: SPDB, Database: sps_site, Backup location: \\spfen1\temp1234\sps-SPDB-sps_site.SPB

18210 :
BackupDiskFile::RequestDurableMedia: failure on backup device '\\spfen1\temp1234\sps-SPDB-sps_site.SPB'. Operating system error 64(The specified network name is no longer available.).


We have tested our disk controllers and disks, every thing is seems to be fine.

Moreover we are not able to copy huge files on some of the drives on the setup.
The errors while copping are like “cannot copy files, Path Too Deep”

Any help will be highly appreciated.
