Thank you very much for replying.
My E: drive is a LUN handed to exchange from my SAN, it contains the
exchange databases.
My F: drive is another LUN and it contains the logs from exchange. I
will try to change the plugin line and see what happens.

I will look in to what VSS is actually backing up as well.

Thanks,
Greg
