Yup, Shadow Copies are the greatest thing, too bad the implementation is a steaming pile of merde. I have no end of issues with VSS, even though the store is directed off to a new controller and set of spindles, it seems when IO climbs to any moderate level, VSS tanks and kills all the old snaps, even when it's not performing a snap!
Why it needs to tank all the _old_ snaps I have no idea. I hate it... On my file servers with it enabled, it seems that large IO is met with pauses and disconnects regardless if a snap is being performed or not. jlc From: Joe Heaton [mailto:jhea...@etp.ca.gov] Sent: Monday, March 02, 2009 10:56 AM To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: Shadow copy question Anyone have issues where shadow copy does something to your server, so that transfer of files between servers get slowed down? I've got a developer saying that this has happened here.
