        Using 5.1, master is Solaris, we have had very high tread counts
when attempting certain window's backup. This has been trace to VSS.

        Realizing that VSS or Microsoft Shadow Copy Provider  can be
disable by disabling the service on a window's box, I have a box that
because it's the end of the month I can't modify. The question is from
the NetBackup perspective is there anyway I can tell NetBackup not to
try to start the VSS service when it attempts a backup?

        TIA,=20
