Hello all,

. Vista is supported by NetWorker Client 7.4 and later.

. Microsoft requires that VSS be used for backups for Vista and Windows
Server 2008, and later.

. Both NetWorker Client and NMM ("NetWorker Module for Microsoft
Applications" -- previously known as VSS Client) support VSS mechanisms.
NMM uses VSS exclusively for protecting the OS and applications, while
NetWorker Client allows you to turn off VSS if the client OS version
allows.

. Windows XP provided an early, different version of VSS, and VSS is not
supported on Windows XP by NetWorker or NMM.

Thanks,

Nick
