Is this related to their Volume Management Services?  IIRC, this
interacts with a backgroup service like LVM or Veritas.  LEts you
create virtual volumes and the like.  Does it enable you to take
snapshots of existing filesystems without rebuilding them into managed
virtual volumes (or whatever the MS verbiage for these things is)?

For what it's worth, if it is the same thing that I have heard of,
I've heard it works ok.
