S.O: Windows 2003 x64 SP2
TSM Client: 5.5.0.6 (x64)

Oracle 10gr2 is installed on server, using raw device. There are one "event log warning" for each raw disk.

Thanks.
Pedro.

Does the backup complete?

[pamiguel]

Yes, backup completes correctly; but It worries me that VSS could corrupt any raw disk trying to do volume shadow.

[moon-buddy]

VSS is not very good in dealing with RAW disk. I don't think there is an option in MS to turn this off.

[pamiguel]

I wan't VSS. VSS is DISABLED in server. TSM uses it, I don't.
It's a Client's TSM BUG?

[moon-buddy]

VSS is not part of TSM but of Windows 2003. Any backup system that Microsoft sees as installed will link VSS with it.
