Yeow!  
 I need that Microsoft hit translated - into English!

Is it saying that the Microsoft exposure is for a volume that is being extended 
while it is being snapped with VSS, 
or  for any volume that has EVER been extended?

(Should I be panicking at this point?)

May or may not be related.... I have an AVAMAR box in our environment and EMC 
issued a VSS-related problem recently.

EMC references 2748349: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2748349 for resolution. 

EMC comments: "The data for applications backed up by other Avamar VSS plug-ins 
(Exchange VSS, SharePoint VSS, and Hyper-V VSS) could also be impacted by the 
Microsoft issue."

Has anyone had numerous issues with TSM TDP for Exchange 2010. We continue to 
struggle with VSS issues and Microsoft claims its not their issue. We initially 
had Exchange circular logging enabled and have since turned that off as 
recommended.  I see that  TSM TDP for Exchange 6.4  is available.

Configuration

TSM 6.3.1.15 server on Windows 2008 R2 Enterprise TSM 6.3.1 BA client  on 
Exchange servers TSM TDP Exchange 6.3.1 Exchange 2010 Version 14.02.0247.005 
Exchange Windows servers 2008 R2 Enterprise SP1
