Dear Symantec,
I was getting error for "V-79-10000-11226 - VSS Snapshot error. The Microsoft Volume Shadow Copy Service (VSS) snapshot provider selected returned: "Unexpected provider error". Ensure that all provider services are enabled and can be started. Check the Windows Event Viewer for details. "
I created a new backup job with AOFO unchecked but still getting the same error. I don't want the above exception for my
backup job due to my audit issue. Can some one help me out to get rid of this.

What type of data is being backed up ? If flat-file data, keep AOFO checked and choose microsoft vss provider.
What is/are the status of the vss writers when running ~ vssadmin list writers ?
Any vss/volsnap errors in the event viewer ?

Normally a reboot of the server in question can solve the issue, but if you're running Windows Server 2003 on the server giving you this issue, you should consider downloading and running the latest VSS Rollup Patch.
Thanks!

Hey VJ,
It's an internal application and during the time when backup is running the eventvwr on the remote agent shows Event ID: 12292.
When i try to run vssadmin list writers every thing seems stable.
Is there any setting from registry from where we can disable these error.

Can you post the description of the event id ?
Secondly, what is the OS of the remote server ?
