Good Day: Our ArcServe backups are failing due in part to a VSS error we are receiving: Writer name: 'System Writer' Writer Id: {e8132975-6f93-4464-a53e-1050253ae220} Writer Instance Id: {5eea8172-eff7-46ba-9c70-50f092414ba5} State: [1] Stable Last error: Non-retryable error Is anyone aware of steps that can be taken to resolve this issue? Thanks, Jesse

Restart the arcserve agent perhaps. Reboot the server after that. Then test again.

Duh, Yup. That did it. Boy, don't I feel silly! Thanks
