Error Calculating VSS digests

Post by TomTiddler »

Running Veeam Agent for Microsoft Windows 5.0.0.4301 - Free Edition. Normal scheduled backups work fine (I checked), but when I try to use "Backup to another location", I get the message "Calculating digests Error: Cannot find shadow copy of volume Recovery", I can't submit this as I don't know where the log files are stored. Sigh.

Can anyone help??

OK, I found the issue - all mine I'm afraid. The target disk I was using for the "other" location happened to have a recovery partition on it. As soo as I got rid of that, everything worked worked fine.

Just admitting this in case someone else stumbles across the same issue :-)

Hi,

Thank you for letting us know about the solution.

FYI: this article describes how to collect Agent logs.

Cheers
