As the manual explains, the "Enable VSS" directive applies to the whole backup
so it must be specified at the FileSet section, not in an Options, Include,
or Exclude section.
In fact, for the moment the Enable VSS is global in the FD, which means that
if you run multiple simultaneous jobs, once an VSS enabled job has started,
all other jobs that start while that job is running will also be VSS.
Running multiple simultaneous FD jobs with VSS enabled is probably a very bad
idea because the snapshot is likely to be deleted out from under one of the
jobs.
We will fix this in a subsequent version. Since I don't know anyone that is
running multiple simultaneous FD jobs (i.e. in one FD), I hope this won't be
a problem.
