Hello,
What you describe is a typical problem with the Windows VSS service.
Either the VSS service is not running because it did not restart on one
of the reboots, or it "crashed", or possibly there was just too big a
workload for Windows to take the snapshot in the timeout period, or not
enough disk space.
If you look at the Windows error logs, it will normally tell you what is
wrong -- in error logging Windows tends to be quite verbose, so if you
do not find any error messages, it is most likely you are looking in the
wrong place -- Windows has lots of different places where error messages go.
Usually stopping and restarting the VSS service on Windows or rebooting
(not always an option) will correct any problems due to Windows bugs,
but it will not correct problems of insufficient disk space.
Reloading Bacula won't help in the least.
Best regards,
Kern
