An email stating the Backup Fail may be received, however the job does infact show as successful and saveset is present.

The warning is caused as the registry hive key 'MACHINE\BCD00000000' has not been backed up as part of the system state on Windows machines only.

A defect has been logged under BUG-21236, a prudent action to take would be to revert from using VSS with the system state backup under the backup options of the job and use the standard option, in order to force the backup to use the WIN32 API to backup the system state.

Status:

This has been fixed in NetVault Backup v10.0 and above.  You can download the latest version of NetVault from the support website.
