Hi all,
 
I am attempting to run a system state backup on a win2k3 member server, but  
recieve the following error:
Source:VSS Event ID:12289

What program are you using to make your backup? I've seen one instance in  
which updating firmware/driver for the storage controller resolved this  
issue.

Thanks Kevin,
 
The issue was resolved by a reboot. BTW I am using Veritas backup exec v  
10.0 to run the backup on sun hardware.
 
I have recently seen the same error on HP hardware. The reboot rectifies the  
fault (ie it has not returned for a month)
