https://community.hpe.com/t5/disk-enclosures/vss-hardware-provider/m-p/4789339#M37842 Hello,<BR /><BR />I have a Windows Server 2003 Marjority Node Set Cluster. There are VDisks from our EVA8000 connected. From these VDisks I would like to create Snapshots using VSS. The Snapshots should appear in the “Previous Versions” tab from the Properties from a folder. So a user can restore his data independently.<BR /><BR />I’ve installed the HP VSS Hardware Provider on one Node. So I’m able to create Snapshots with the command “vshadow –p” from the VSS SDK.<BR /><BR />Now I don’t think it is very thoughtfully to install on every Client (Windows XP) the SDK that a user can make restores from his data with a vshadow command. This method is not very easy to use and I don’t think that every user can handle this.<BR /><BR />Now my Questions: <BR /><BR />1. Is there a possibility for the EVA8000 that the snapshots appear under "previous versions"?<BR /><BR />2. Is there a possibility that the Snapshots which were created with the RSM appear in Windows as a Shadow Copy?<BR /><BR />I’m grateful for every hint.<BR /><BR />Best regards<BR /> Wed, 18 May 2011 11:20:31 GMT Andreas Vogelsang 2011-05-18T11:20:31Z https://community.hpe.com/t5/disk-enclosures/vss-hardware-provider/m-p/4789339#M37842 Hello,<BR /><BR />I have a Windows Server 2003 Marjority Node Set Cluster.
