Re: [ADSM-L] 'Transient' VSS errors on Windows clients

Seeing the same sort of thing with 6.2.4 code.
Also note, vss gets easily confused.
Like you, I am not confident that tsm adheres to its retry three times
statement.

Subject: [ADSM-L] 'Transient' VSS errors on Windows clients
According to the TSM Problem Determination guide, a number of VSS errors
are treated as transient. The default client behaviour should be to re-try
the operation three times at 30-second intervals but this has not been my
experience - a single error of type VSS_E_SNAPSHOT_SET_IN_PROGRESS is
enough to mess up the backup of the ASR files within seconds of it
starting.
I've logged a PMR concerning the issue, but my questions to the list are:
- does anyone encounter this specific VSS error?
- has anyone had any joy with the retry logic in the client such that the
system state backup goes on to complete successfully?
We see this an awful lot on Windows Server 2008 R2 running the 6.3.0.x
client code.
