Checkpoints and backups with big execution windows

I need a solution

Hi,

Checkpoints seem to not be working on my environment. Well, that's not accurate: For the same windows  host, checkpoints seem to work for regular folders (like de G: drive) but not for my DFSR folders (copied via SCC\User Data\DFSRFolders)

  I'm talking about a very big and slow full backup takes 35-40h to complete. Last time it failed after 30h and it restarted from scratch, not using any checkpoints. It started on a Saturday early morning and failes on a Sunday afternoon. As I said, the backup for the G: drive did resume from the checkpint and

Any idea why? My Clean-up property  "Move backup job from incomplete state to done state" was set to 6h (will change it to 24h) and "Schedule backup attempts" is set to "2 tries per 3h".

From the logs of the job that was able to resume the backup I see this:

04/06/2016 09:31:46 - Info nbjm(pid=5080) resumed backup (backupid=SERVERNAME_1464976812) job for client SERVERNAME, policy SERVERNAME, schedule Full on storage unit TLD3
04/06/2016 09:31:49 - Info bpbrm(pid=1968) SERVERNAME is the host to backup data from     
04/06/2016 09:31:49 - Info bptm(pid=7660) using 65536 data buffer size        
04/06/2016 09:31:49 - Info bpbrm(pid=1968) telling media manager to start backup on client     
04/06/2016 09:31:49 - Info bptm(pid=7660) using 128 data buffers         
04/06/2016 09:31:49 - Info bptm(pid=7660) resuming backup-id SERVERNAME_1464976812 copy 1 at fragment 91, 512 blocks: 344496263  
04/06/2016 09:31:57 - Info bpbrm(pid=5320) sending bpsched msg: CONNECTING TO CLIENT FOR SERVERNAME_1464976812    

But the one that didn't resume the backup doesn't mention the line where it states what fragment it should be using:

05/06/2016 19:26:05 - Info nbjm(pid=5080) resumed backup (backupid=SERVERNAME_1465017500) job for client SERVERNAME, policy SERVERNAME_DFSR2, schedule Full on storage unit TLD0

05/06/2016 19:26:12 - Info bptm(pid=9132) using 65536 data buffer size

05/06/2016 19:26:16 - Info bpbrm(pid=8560) sending bpsched msg: CONNECTING TO CLIENT FOR SERVERNAME_1465017500

Thanks!
