we were running server 2003. we have shadow copy running and pretty regularly the backups would just disappear. we have upgraded to server 2008 and was told that the shadow copy was more stable in this version. it has worked weel for about a month but now they have started to disappear again. what would cause this. i have a large amount of free space. thanks, brianbrian nilson

Hi Brian, This forum is for Exchange related issue, for question about “Shadow copy on Windows Server”, I suggest you use following link which would be the most relevant forum for your question: Backup – Windows and Windows Server http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/windowsbackup/threads Here is a related document about Shadow Copies for Server 2008, hope can give you some help: Create and Restore Shadow Copies on Windows Server 2008 http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/magazine/dd637757.aspx Thanks, Evan
