Volume Shadow Copy SDK

Just a correction - GetVolumeCount/GetVolumeArray are implemented by the sample code. The volumes are added to the shadow copy through the AddToSnapshotSet API.

The complete sequence of APIs to create a shadow copy set is more complicated - see the create.cpp in the VSHADOW sample code.

The pointer to the MSDN documentation for the VSS API is here:

The pointer to the downloadable VSS SDK is here.

This SDK also contains the latest VSHADOW sample code. Note that the www.microsoftstoragepartners.com contains the old (and deprecated) 7.0 SDK.

Thanks, Adi

In my previous post I indicated that GetCurrentVolumeCount is implemented by the sample code - AFAIK this is used in the old VSREQ VSS sample. This method is also implemented in the CVssWriter class which is part of the VSS API.

Chuck gets technical witht he VSC SDK.
