Specifying settings for using VSS
If you want to use VSS to perform an online backup of a file system or an Exchange database, the
following settings are required:
• The Application Agent and RAID Manager environments must be set up so that Application Agent
can perform VSS backups. Moreover, it is necessary to create a pair before backup. When creating
a pair, specify the
-m noread option in the paircreate command.
• P9000 RMXP Shadow Copy Provider must be installed in advance on the file server, or both the
database server and the backup server. Note that if P9000 RMXP Shadow Copy Provider has not
been installed on the servers when Application Agent is installed, P9000 RMXP Shadow Copy
Provider will be installed together with Application Agent. For details about how to install P9000
RMXP Shadow Copy Provider separately, see RAID Manager documentation.
Before you install P9000 RMXP Shadow Copy Provider, use the Services pane in the Windows
to make sure that the Windows services are set to the default settings shown in the following table:
Table 41 Default settings for Windows services related to P9000 RMXP Shadow Copy Provider
Startup type Displayed name Service name
Automatic Remote Procedure Call (RPC) RpcSs
Automatic Event Log EventLog
Automatic DCOM Server Process Launcher DcomLaunch
Automatic Security Accounts Manager SamSs
Automatic Windows Management Instrumentation winmgmt
Manual COM+ Event System EventSystem
Manual Windows Installer MSIServer
Manual Volume Shadow Copy VSS
Manual COM+ System Application COMSysApp
Manual Distributed Transaction Coordinator MSDTC
If you attempt to install P9000 RMXP Shadow Copy Provider when these Windows services are
not set to their default settings, the P9000 RMXP Shadow Copy Provider service will not be re-
gistered as a Windows service. In such a case, when the backup command is executed when
VSS is specified in the
-mode option, an error message will be displayed and processing will
terminate with an error.
• The execution of the raidvchkset command, described in the RAID Manager manual, is not
necessary.
