Verify that the VSS Hardware Provider was used successfully

Contributors

You can verify that the Data ONTAP VSS Hardware Provider was used successfully after a Snapshot copy was made.

Steps

  1. Navigate to System Tools › Event viewer › Application in MMC and look for an event with the following values:

    Source Event ID Description

    Navssprv

    4089

    The VSS provider has successfully completed CommitSnapshots for SnapshotSetId id in n milliseconds.
Note VSS requires that the provider commit a Snapshot copy within 10 seconds. If this time limit is exceeded, the Data ONTAP VSS Hardware Provider logs Event ID 4364. This limit could be exceeded due to a transient problem. If this event is logged for a failed backup, retry the backup.
