SQL VSS Writer

  • Hi,

    We would like to go for Security best practices.

    The VSS Writer allows backup and restore using the Volume Shadow Copy framework. This service is disabled by default. If you do not use Volume Shadow Copy, disable this service.

    My question is how we can know whether the VSS writer is using Volume shadow Copy framework? where can we check that?

  • Just to clarify, are you asking how you can determine if VSS is being used in the backup process that you currently have implemented?
