Users are complaining that they are getting experiencing time outs to a MS
SQL 2005 database.
There is no explaination on the network, however lots of speculation that
the time outs are happening during the full nightly backups.

Is it possible that backups can cause the users to time out?

Stop speculating and start investigating. Guessing is a good way to waste a
lot of time and usually generates a solution to a problem that does not
exist.

No. We're using a 3rd party product - Commvault that backs it up to Data
Domain.
