Fernando, I have seen a very similar situation. The Exchange DB may be in a inconsistent state, for some reason the API is unable to start the backup. Ntbackup will work fine. We were able to restore the ntbackup on our test server even though we could not perform a backup using TSM.
We went through TSM support which said it is an Exchange api issue and suggested we contact MS support. We then went through MS support and they wanted us to run all sorts of maintenance. We decided to stop the IS and start it again. Consistency checker ran as part of start up and backups worked fine afterwards. It doesn't answer why it is happening. We saw the problem twice on two different Exchange servers, we started the backups a little later and rescheduled the defrags. Haven't had any problems since.
