Hello everyone,

I am new to this postition and want to make sure I know most of what is
going to happen before I make changes to the systems.

I am having two different issues with the Volume Shadow Copy Service. One is
that at different times, the service writer (System Writer, NTDS, and FRS
Writer) will take a leave of absence after a backup and become stuck on the
status of "Waiting for Completion". How can I get it to become unstuck? Can I
just restart the service without having to reboot the server? On the
properties of the service I noticed that on the Recovery tab, all three
failures are at Take no action. Should at least the first one be restart the
service?

The second problem I have is I keep getting this error in the Application
Event log every day when the backup runs even though it is set to use the
System Account:

If I just delete the user out of the registry, what will be the
repercusions? Can I just leave that registry entry blank?

Thank you in advance for all of your support.

Re: VSS Errors

Thanks Hank!

If I read this correctly, I can just delete the key with the user in it and
all should be good. Is it ok to have it blank? I would think that the local
system account would have the proper permissions without this key. Am I
correct?

Thank you again!
