Both DPM and SMHV uses VSS framework for Hyper-V backup using</P><P>Hyper-V VSS writer.

CSV does not keep the ‘backup in progress’ state per requester. Hence, one may actually get a corrupted backup (much worse than a failure).</P><P></P><P> </P><P></P><P>Please refer to “Note” section in following MSDN link:</P><P></P><P><A href="http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dd891003%28v=VS.85%29.aspx" target="_blank">http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dd891003%28v=VS.85%29.aspx</A></P><P></P><P> </P><P></P><P>Thanks,</P><P></P><P>Anagha</P></BODY></HTML> Mon, 08 Nov 2010 17:26:16 GMT https://community.netapp.com/t5/Microsoft-Virtualization-Discussions/SMHV-and-Microsoft-DPM/m-p/41548#M1945 barve 2010-11-08T17:26:16Z Re: SMHV and Microsoft DPM https://community.netapp.com/t5/Microsoft-Virtualization-Discussions/SMHV-and-Microsoft-DPM/m-p/41553#M1946 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><P>Good po</P><P></P><P>Thanks,</P><P>Vineeth</P></BODY></HTML> Mon, 08 Nov 2010 17:34:45 GMT https://community.netapp.com/t5/Microsoft-Virtualization-Discussions/SMHV-and-Microsoft-DPM/m-p/41553#M1946 vkarinta 2010-11-08T17:34:45Z
