Exchange Server 2013 - Microsoft Exchange Writer dissapearing

Hello,
We have a customer running 4 Exchange Server 2013 in High Availability, 2 for CAS, and 2 for Mailbox Server role.
They run Backup Exec to do the databases backups. The operating systems of the Exchange Servers is WS2012R2.

The problem is that several times the Microsoft Exchange Writer disappears and of course the backup job fails.
They can bring it back restarting a specific service (I do not remember wich now, but it does not care), and the Writer appears again, may be two times the backup job work as espected but then the writer disappear again and so on.

Exchange Servers have CU23 installed.

I was searching in internet, and there are several reports about this problem, but they are too old, and in some of them they talked about installing next CU, but in this case they have the lastest installed.

Does anybody know how to resolve this issue?
thanks
