Hello all,
I just came across some information I've been trying to find for awhile now,
so I thought I'd share it.
In Microsoft Windows Small Business Server 2003 the VSS Writer for Exchange
is turned off by default. This is evident in the following log output (note
that the writer is not here!):
27-Mar 03:45 exchange-fd: VSS Writer (BackupComplete): "System Writer",
State: 0x1 (VSS_WS_STABLE)
27-Mar 03:45 exchange-fd: VSS Writer (BackupComplete): "FRS Writer", State:
0x1 (VSS_WS_STABLE)
27-Mar 03:45 exchange-fd: VSS Writer (BackupComplete): "MSDEWriter", State:
0x1 (VSS_WS_STABLE)
27-Mar 03:45 exchange-fd: VSS Writer (BackupComplete): "Certificate
Authority", State: 0x1 (VSS_WS_STABLE)
27-Mar 03:45 exchange-fd: VSS Writer (BackupComplete): "Registry Writer",
State: 0x1 (VSS_WS_STABLE)
27-Mar 03:45 exchange-fd: VSS Writer (BackupComplete): "WINS Jet Writer",
State: 0x1 (VSS_WS_STABLE)
27-Mar 03:45 exchange-fd: VSS Writer (BackupComplete): "Event Log Writer",
State: 0x1 (VSS_WS_STABLE)
27-Mar 03:45 exchange-fd: VSS Writer (BackupComplete): "WMI Writer", State:
0x1 (VSS_WS_STABLE)
27-Mar 03:45 exchange-fd: VSS Writer (BackupComplete): "Removable Storage
Manager", State: 0x1 (VSS_WS_STABLE)
27-Mar 03:45 exchange-fd: VSS Writer (BackupComplete): "IIS Metabase
Writer", State: 0x1 (VSS_WS_STABLE)
27-Mar 03:45 exchange-fd: VSS Writer (BackupComplete): "COM+ REGDB Writer",
State: 0x1 (VSS_WS_STABLE)
27-Mar 03:45 exchange-fd: VSS Writer (BackupComplete): "BITS Writer", State:
0x1 (VSS_WS_STABLE)
27-Mar 03:45 exchange-fd: VSS Writer (BackupComplete): "NTDS", State: 0x1
(VSS_WS_STABLE)
The following link provided by MS fixes this (not tested in production,
yet):

I hope this benefits someone else that was looking for this information.
