Configuring NetVault Backup to use a specific VSS provider

When performing VSS-based backups, NetVault Backup uses the default VSS provider as determined by VSS. To use a specific VSS provider, you can configure the provider ID in the vss.cfg file.

To configure NetVault Backup to use a specific VSS provider:
1
On the NetVault Backup Client on which you want to run the VSS-based backup, open the vss.cfg file. This file resides in the config subdirectory under the NetVault Backup installation directory.
If the vss.cfg file does not exist on the server or client machine, manually create the file in the config directory.
2
Add the following section:
[Provider]
name = <VSS provider name>
type = <Provider type>
ID = {<Provider ID/GUID}
Version = <Provider version>
Example:
[Provider]
name = Microsoft Software Shadow Copy provider 1.0
type = System
ID = {b5946137-7b9f-4925-af80-51abd60b20d5}
Version = 1.0.0.7
3
Save and close the file.
 
* 
IMPORTANT:  
•
When you specify a provider ID (GUID), NetVault Backup does not perform any checks to determine if the provider is registered, installed, or capable of performing snapshot for a volume.
•
If NetVault Backup is unable to properly read or parse the provider ID, the VSS backup continues with the default provider as normally determined by VSS.
