Hello,
We are running EMC/Legato Networker 7.4with Sp2 to backup our Windows
Server 2008 (64-bit) server, and very other day we hit a problem where
the backup fails for no apparent reason.
When the problem occurs, the backup logs show the following
savegrp: suppressed 2 lines of verbose output
C:\windows\help\windows\en-us\ocsp.h1s
C:\windows\inf\oem12.inf
System Writer - Get file attributes returned error 2 for VSS file

System Writer - ERROR: Aborting backup of saveset VSS SYSTEM FILESET:

System Writer - Error saving

Also, vssadmin show the following..

Previously, we have had to reboot the server as a workaround, but this
is not a tenable long-term solution. All my findings only refer to VSS
updates for Windows 2003. I have not seen any that refers to Windows
2008, so would be grateful if someone can assist with getting this
resolved.
Thanks
Chris
