By itself, rsync isn't VSS aware (nor should it be, really, since rsync
acts on files and VSS acts on volumes) but I, Mr. Kosowsky and others here
have put together various ways for VSS and rsync to work together with
BackupPC to back up Windows and its various services.

Due to the way Microsoft has put together VSS, a VSS writer for Exchange
in conjunction with the above should work for full volume backups for
Exchange just as a VSS writer for SQL Server will do the same for SQL
Server.  It won't be aware of individual databases (you'd need to interact
with the VSS API for that.)

Note also that recovery may be tricky; as with any backup solution, I
highly recommend testing it before relying upon it.
