    SBS 2003 SP2 backup failed with error creating volume shadow copy

    Error returned while creating the volume shadow copy:0x8007000e.
    Symptom is exactly as described in hotfix 907875.
    However as SP2 already included fixes for 907875, cannot apply it any more.
    Not able to follow workaround solution as no boot.ini file can be found.
    Re-registered the vss services only work for two days and failed again.
    Server configuration:
    Intel Xeon 3GHz
    1GB memory
    hard disk 150GB, only using 30GB of it
    maximum page file size set to 4GB

    Any suggestion?

    Re: SBS 2003 SP2 backup failed with error creating volume shadow copy

    you can find the boot.ini on the root of the C:\ drive
    It is hidden and flagged as a system file, on the CMD prompt type:

    C:\>attrib boot.ini

    and you can see the file

    rgds,
    Edwin.

    Re: SBS 2003 SP2 backup failed with error creating volume shadow c

    Thanks, Edwin.
    However there is no /3GB switch as mentioned in the workaround solution of
    907875!

    do you actually get the Event ID 21 in the event log ?

    please copy the event into a post

    any other errors at that time, or leading up to it ?

    thanks,
    Edwin.
