Hi, We are trying to run a normal backup on a windows 2016 server. We are not using snapshots, yet every time the scheduler starts a backup, it fails by trying to start a snapshot. Has anyone seen this and is there a way to disable the VSS snapshot attempt?
*Here is the error:* 02/25/2021 20:36:07 ANS5250E An unexpected error was encountered. IBM Spectrum Protect function name : StartSnapshotSet() IBM Spectrum Protect function : 'StartSnapshotSet() failed with error VSS_E_SNAPSHOT_SET_IN_PROGRESS. 0X80042316' IBM Spectrum Protect return code : -2147212522 IBM Spectrum Protect file : ..\..\common\winnt\asrutil.cpp (1928) *Here is the opt file where we have VSS disabled:* NODENAME XXXXXXX TCPSERVERADDRESS xxx.xx.xxxxx.xxx EXCLUDE.BACKUP "*:\microsoft uam volume\...\*" EXCLUDE.ARCHIVE "*:\...\system32\Perflib*.dat" SNAPSHOTPROVIDERFS NONE SNAPSHOTPROVIDERIMAGE NONE PASSWORDACCESS GENERATE Thanks, Mike --
