Hi Robert, I recommend that you check the event logs and other system logs closely. I think that there must be something else running (like another backup type, or a defrag, or something else) that is causing this situation to occur. I know that you said that the exchange admin told you that the defrag wasn't running within that timespan, but this error is the Exchange Server telling you that expected log files are missing... and that you need to run a full backup.
