I am getting the following error message:
I have not been able to find anything in terms of a solution online. I appreciate any help in advance.

Go to command prompt and run the command VSSADMIN LIST WRITERS
If any of the writer is in unstable state then try to reboot the server and then take the backups.
Thanks,

All writers are stable and have no errors. I do not know if this matters, but the error is occurring on a domain controller. There are 15 other devices being backed up, and the only one that gives the error is the domain controller. Any other suggestions besides the reboot?

Is AOFO enabled for the backup job and is set to explicitly use Microsoft Volume Shadow Copy Service as the snapshot provider ?

Yes, we had this problem earlier in the week and we enabled AOFO as well as setting the snapshot provider to be Microsoft Volume Shadow Copy Service. Does this have anything to do with the domain controller we are backing up perhaps? Since all other backups complete as they should?
