Operation
This chapter explains backup operation procedures using VSSHP.
5.1 Backup
Perform via a requester.
Setting a requester to cooperate with VSS enables backup.
5.2 Restoration
Perform via a requester.
Perform restoration operations using the restore function of a requester.
• Do not use a Shadow Copy destination during backup. Remove the drive letter and mount point
(unmount) to prevent accidental use of the Shadow Copy.
• Even if a requester is aborted, Advanced Copy may start. In this case, backup will fail. Remove
the cause of the error according to the coping strategy from the requester, and try the backup
again.
