Hi,
I have noticed that my recently my daily and weekly file backup completes the backup process with following exception:
Backup - AOFO: Initialization failure on: "F:". Advanced Open File Option used: Microsoft Volume Shadow Co... V-79-10000-11217 - VSS Snapshot error. The Microsoft Volume Shadow Copy Service (VSS) snapshot faile...
My AOFO is set to Automatically select open file technology, I have never changed it. This exception has been appearing since I added new iSCSI drive to our server.
Does anyone know how to resolve this issue
Solved! Go to Solution.

I called Microsoft Support and they advised it is because of the nonpaged pool memory not having enough resource, their fix is to upgrade the server to x64 or create a smaller LUN. They have also removed /3GB /USERVA=3030 from the boot.ini, after server restart everything seems to be fine with my backups.
They have also advised to applying following fix if above did not work: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/312362
Hope it will be useful for someone else.
