Advanced tab of the Volume Properties window, SIS
is disabled on subsequent volumes and no error
message is displayed.
To work around this issue, run the following command from the

When you enable SIS on subsequent volumes through the Graphical
User Interface (GUI), the SIS service is stopped. You must restart the
SIS service manually through the services.msc application for each
volume.
