Hey
First of all. Thats for this script. It pretty much do the job..but but.
Under Customizable variables "sarchive" dosent support "-" in the UNC path.If i write sarchive = "\\my-server\folder\folder" I get this error message in the log. [Function f_CreateFolder] Error creating : \\. The error was : Bad file name or number.
How do i correct this in the script?

OK, we may be getting somewhere. I changed 'sArchive = "Z:\Virtual Servers\In Use"' to 'sArchive = "\\asifiles2\Virtual Servers\In Use" and this successfully backed up the first virtual machine. I can see that the script successfully saved the state of and restored all the virtual machines I had running. The problem this time however, was that only the first virtual machine was actually copied...

This is the only thing I changed:
sArchive = "Z:\Virtual Servers\In Use"
Z: is a mapped drive, it goes to a Nas device. If the issue is using Z:, I can change to a UNC path if you could show me how it should be written.

Since you've got a new error, it would have been nice if you attatched a new log. It's easier to analyze.
First of all, were you able to successfully run vshadow and mount it to a drive? In other words is that specific issue solved?
Second, you can use both unc or local path. This should not matter, however. There's an issue with path containing spaces. This should be corrected in next...

When I took a look at one server yesterday, there was an "X:" drive that looked identical to the "C:" drive. I thought my mirrored OS had broken and that was the cause of "X:" being in use, but my RAID was fine. As soon as I ran "vshadow -da" the X: drive disappeared, but before then I could see it as if it were physical.
Today on both servers that I tested the script on, the error was that...

After an examine of the logfile, I must ask you this.
Have you assigned something to "X:" in you're OS. For instance mounted a network drive, assigned to a local disk, CD-Rom etc? If this is the case, you must change the value of sMountDrive. The default value is : sMountDrive = "X:". Change this to a driveletter which is not in use.
If this is not the case, try to execute the vshadow...
