Snapcentre intermitant SQL backup fails

Since we installed and configured SnapCenter server (including host SQL Plugins) and the corresponding DataBroker we have intermittently had issues where we have had batches of hourly SQL backups that would fail.  Due to all other hourlies working and other workloads we have not raised this as it was not completely failing and assumed the first thing to try would be upgrading to the latest versions.  Over the past week we have had more time to take a look and planned in an upgrade of both SnapCenter to v4.3.2 (including all host Windows\SQL Plugins) and the DataBroker to the newly named SnapCenter Plug-in v4.3.1 for VMware vSphere so we should now be on the latest versions of both components. This work was completed on Sunday around 8pm but since this time we have seen the same issues since the upgrade.
