VVlauncher Error

[mrjb]

Hello
Ihope someone can help me as this is quite important. I am using the vss:\\ notation to backup a live MSSQl database. It's not working. I continually get in VVLauncher an error condition it says


Status line says *Error*

"cannot monitor folder vss:\\SqlServerWriter:master "

I have enabled volume shadow in the profile.

I cannot find any where in your documentation or on this forum where this specific error is addressed.

Please Advise.

Thanks in advance

Hello Johnathan,

you can't monitor a VSS:\\ location for changes, you can only schedule the profile to run at a specific time.

thanks

Thank you very much for you quick reply.

Now that I know this I'll just schedule an hourly auto backup.

I would also like to thank you for some great software at a great price. I have read around this forum some comments on your decision to charge for the .5 upgrade. As a person coming from the "Backup Exec" world I think that YOUR product is a tremendous Value. I would recommend anyone complaining about the price do a Point By Point comparison between VV and the current offering from Backup Exec. I think they'll find about a $2000.00 dollar difference.

Case in point we replaced Backup Exec to Tape system w/ VV and USB drives and saved our clients approximately $2200.00. That's is, we replaced the old system completely and purchased VV PRO and the USB drives and saved $2200.00 on what it would have cost our client to Update BE alone.

So I would personally like to thank you for your product and let you know that there are some here who see real value in your offerings.
