Randy,
you could try this command too
perhaps....
bpclient -client <Servername>
-L
Look for WOFB FIM - It may say VSP as an
example... Also must use capital "L"
Simon
I
apologize for saying “VSP”, let’s pretend I didn’t. What’s the
quickest/easiest way to determine if a backup used VSS
or not on a Windows server?

Ed, you seem to be
asserting that a client with vsp.sys present will use it, despite configuration
to the contrary done in the client DB on the master.
I think that's
incorrect.
Is that actually what
you meant to say?

going to change the settings on one client and leave them as is on

VSP?
If VSP.SYS exists in system32\drivers (I think - double-check
that location), then VSP gets used. Uninstall the client, reboot, and
re-install the client without VSP using a custom install.
Be aware that in some rare cases, the system may not come up
after VSP is uninstalled. Some people have seen this multiple times (lucky
me) and some people have never seen it.
