Tracking the origination of a shadow copy
-
I have a client who is trying to pin the creation of a shadow copy on a particular bit of software that we're using, that I am quite sure is not the culprit. Using the "vssadmin list shadows" command, I can see the shadow copy, but I can't discern if any of the resulting information is telling me what requested said shadow copy. Can anyone offer advice as to what I am not doing that I should be, or if something like the "originating machine" is the originator of the request? Thanks!

You can request a shadow copy to happen on another machine other than local one? Didn't know that.

I suppose you could easy enough with an agent, thinking backups here.

Precisely. As the origination is the same machine and not the backup device, I guess that answers that.
