We have a Windows server 2003 box that recently cannot be backed up by TSM (tivoli storage manager)...I isolated the issue but cannot seem to figure out how to get shadow copies to display correctly in the C drive properties (Shadow Copies tab)...is there any way to rebuild the shadow copies without reinstalling the OS? this server is in a production environment and cannot be rebooted right away...I noticed that the service "Microsoft Software Shadow Copy Provider" was stopped so I started it and set it to 'Automatic' and just for the record "Volume Shadow Copy" service is started and set to automatic...any info on this would be greatly appreciated...please see screenshot below for the error I am getting....Thanks a million everyone!
Shadow copies tab error: Initialization failed. Error 0x80080005: server execution failed.
VSS writer all are stable but it taking time to diplay the result.
