Configuring NetVault to use a specific VSS provider

When performing VSS-based backups, NetVault 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.

1
On the NetVault 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 installation directory.
If the vss.cfg file does not exist on the server or client machine, manually create the file in the config directory.
IMPORTANT:  

Configuring default settings using Txtconfig

The Txtconfig utility provides a text-based interface to customize various settings for the server and client machines. This utility is available on all supported operating systems. The Txtconfig utility resides in the bin directory under the NetVault installation directory.

Before you start Txtconfig on a Windows-based machine running the French or German version of NetVault, you must set the font type and code page in the command prompt window:

Set the font type to Lucida Console: Open a command prompt window. Click the Control Menu icon in upper-left corner or right-click the title bar, and select Properties. In the Properties dialog box, click the Font tab, and select Lucida Console in the Font list.
Set the code page to 1252: In the command prompt window where you want to run Txtconfig, type the following command:

These settings are necessary to display the text correctly in the command prompt window.

Press Enter or Return

The Machine page is displayed when you start the Txtconfig utility. You can view the following details on this page: Machine name, machine ID, network names, IP addresses, NetVault version, OS version, and OS platform.
