    As I bang my head on the wall. Duh!

      12/02/2014 21:15:02,Backup,Unknown,BACKUP failed to complete the command BACKUP DATABASE MyDatabase. Check the backup application log for detailed messages.

      12/02/2014 21:15:02,Backup,Unknown,Error: 3041<c/> Severity: 16<c/> State: 1.

      12/02/2014 21:15:02,spid52,Unknown,BackupDiskFile::CreateMedia: Backup device 'G:\SQLBackup\MyDatabase_Backup.bak' failed to create. Operating system error 32(The process cannot access the file because it is being used by another process.).

      12/02/2014 21:15:02,spid52,Unknown,Error: 18204<c/> Severity: 16<c/> State: 1.

    So I have to find why the file was being used.

    Thanks!
