I am currently attempting to backup the SystemState Data on a Windows
2003 server running exchange 2003 server, with Backup Exec v9.
I have taken a look at all the relevant posts in relation to VSS
errors, and none seem to help...
Event error is below:
source: VSS
EventID 12302
Description:
Volume Shadow Copy Service error: An internal inconsistency was
detected in trying to contact shadow copy service writers. Please
check to see that the Event Service and Volume Shadow Copy Service are
operating properly.
I have taken a look at the VSSADMIN list writers and get none listed
and no errors...
C:\Documents and Settings\administrator>vssadmin list writers
vssadmin 1.1 - Volume Shadow Copy Service administrative command-line

If I list providers I get the following
C:\Documents and Settings\riggsadmin>vssadmin list providers
vssadmin 1.1 - Volume Shadow Copy Service administrative command-line
tool

Provider name: 'Microsoft Software Shadow Copy provider 1.0'
Provider type: System

log
