Re: SBS 2003 Backup



My Computer | rt. click C: drive | Properties | Shadow Copies

Disable Shadow copy on all volumes. (This will also delete all previous
shadow copies).

Is there a way to turn "Volume Shadow Copy" option off during backup. I'm
trying to clean up a mess here and everytime I try to run a backup it dies
and I believe it's because I don't have enough disk space to shadow copy
everything.
