I'm guessing this is the case that because this is an IDS monitoring box
the directories and files on that volume are constantly in use. I
suppose then the raw backup will never work?
You'll have to excuse my ignorance with windows clients but isn't VSP
installed with the client software or do i need to install it
separately? I can't recall seeing it on the windows cd i have.
cheers
