Posted August 10, 200816 yr Hi, using server 2008 (32/64 version) i noticed mount points are recursive followed especially in this case (see steps 1-2), has anyone knows how it can be stopped? step 1 ) mounting shadow copy of volume X on volume X step 2) create additional shadow copy of the same volume X and mount it again on volume x(different location) as result the second mounted shadow copy(step 2) contains the first mount point of the previous shadow(step 1) 1. in server 2003 the behavior was different, mounted shadows where not followed 2. now the first mount point as two paths, the original and inside the second mounted shadow copy 3. after few steps as above, my machine crash my questions? 1. can i programmatic (or in other means) can change the behavior to what it was on 2003 2. is that possible to exclude the directory that include the mounted shadow copies (all reside in the same folder in my application) as requester (IVssBackupComponents) [using the registry HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet \Control \BackupRestore\FilesNotToBackup or \snapshot... helps but only some times, i suppose it's since the exclude describe as "best effort" in msdn documentation] thx, Eyal.
