OK, so NTBackup is out of race, but how about CompletePC Backup from Vista?

Will CompletePC Backup be supported?

I'm not sure I follow your critique. The post your refence says that NT backup cannot be used. A 3rd party product must be used for live backup of a VHD via VSS. So, what are you saying differently?

Question #1: Why can't NT Backup be upgrade to support Microsoft's own VSS technology? This seems like a big hole. Believe it or not, a lot of us use NTBackup and it is "good enough"; know we'll have to go buy some 3rd party can of worms backup and change all our procedures.

Question #2: Is there a faq or list somewhere of 3rd party backup products that are Microsoft certified (not vendor self-stated) for VSS?

SQL Server has its own VSS writer, and NTBackup backs it up just fine...
