This is an issue for site management to address. If those wonderful Windows administrators capriciously made a major change in the way site servers are operating, and did not communicate it to the organization, then they are out of control and need some "parental guidance". Site management should realize the damage they are doing and take action. It's not just your backup system that it being affected, but also the performance of all the servers and overload on the network. An organization has to function in a team manner...as a cohesive whole. Things go to pot when that doesn't happen, and it isn't happening at your site.
