Netbackup Error 99

I am very new to this Netbackup program and I trying to figure out how to fix the Error 99 that I keep getting when trying to backup our Netapps.  The Status message is below that I get from the job when it fails each day.

I am hoping to find an expert in here that can help me figure out what is going on or point me in the right direction to get these backups working again.

Great thanks for your help - the problem was the path name was wrong.  When whoever setup out storage they did not keep the volume name and the share name the same.  So I was using the share name not the correct volume name.  I switched to the volume name and it seems to be working - Thanks again
