An unexpected network error occurred

An unexpected network error occurred. (\\HyperV_hostname\path_to_vhd_file)

Application Message ID: 59

Product:  DS-Client Category:  System Software Version:  13.0 and newer Last Updated:  2018-01-18

Symptoms

The error is reported during backup ( VSS-Aware for Microsoft Hyper-V backup sets).

Cause

The disk holding the vhd file has bad sectors. When running a backup with a file system set with the VSS option enabled (can be statistical with "calculate transmit amount" switch enabled) that protects the same volume, the same error will be reported in DS-User event log, but in the same time an error or warning will be logged in the operating system event viewer / system log signaling a disk issue.
Workaround

check the disk for bad sectors
