    Hi Everyone, 

    I did find the solution to the problem. 

    My Media server, had a two NIC's Teamed, The exchange server did not. Reading the debug lof of the beremote i was able to find out that the VSS writters are working fine, and no errors were coming up. It seemed that the connection would drop right after the VSS writters were done and transfering the file back to the backup server. 

     

    What I did:

    In the job properties, i went to network and  forced the interface onto a specific NIC and force IPV4 instead of "using any available one" this solved the problem. 

     

    I hope this information can help someone. Thanks for all the help everyone.

Hi,

 

If you don't have the Dell software installed, it might be worth installing it and then trying the TN you specified (MIGHT...not necessarily the fix).

However, your error doesn't necessarily revolve around the Dell software. The TN mentions using the: vssadmin list writers command from a command prompt. THis shows you the VSS writers in use on your system, and they should all be stable and running. Anything not stable and running is in error, and you have 2 ways of fixing this:

1. Rebooting the server to reset the writers.

2. Apply the VSS *.dll reregister according to the TN below:

Thanks!
