Cause:
1. The target (destination) virtual machine having issue (virtual disk/snapshot corrupted).
2. The replicate virtual machine disk size too big (over WAN accelerator cache size).

2. Right click on the WAN Accelerator server, and select clear cache. 

3. Re-run the replication or backup copy job.
