I want to verify that I don't have to anything at the Windows OS level to allow NetBackup to use VSS on that client so I'm going to change the settings on one client and leave them as is on another.  What's the easiest way to verify that they are both still using VSP?

If VSP.SYS exists in system32\drivers (I think - double-check that location), then VSP gets used.  Uninstall the client, reboot, and re-install the client without VSP using a custom install.
 
Be aware that in some rare cases, the system may not come up after VSP is uninstalled.  Some people have seen this multiple times (lucky me) and some people have never seen it.
