Which kind of SnapDrive actions would generate those log in filer's messages?

Hi there,

IHAC told me that they found lots of attached logs in filer's messages file every night except Sunday, and they said there should no any scripts running at that time.

Can anybody tell me which kind of SnapDrive actions would generate those logs?

Thanks,

Jeff

Is is SnapDrive for Windows running inside VMware guest?

Your issue looks strikingly similar to this one:

No, it is a SAN-booted windows running SAP, no SMSAP installed. And we have the production SAP server with SMSAP installed.

The snapshot named like {5b749586-4d0a-428d-b12a-c8a7591f4c90} is not create by SnapDrive, it is a GUID, which is created by VSS.

Customer has Legato Networker installed for backup, the Networker will use VSS to generate the snapshots on filer.
