NetVault snapshots use wrong provider and snapshots fail or LUN’s can be left connected to the server NetVault creates snapshot on.

NetVault client uses   “Dell EqualLogic Auto Snapshot Manager”  using the 'Dell EqualLogic VSS HW Provider' or any other hardware provider when NetVault preference is to use Microsoft provider.

NetVault plugins that use snapshots can use these hardware providers or nonstandard software providers see list below when they should be using Microsoft provider.
