Question : volume shadow copy with NT4 Server

Hi all,

I have a potential customer who is still using NT Svr due to a 3rd party app which will only work in this environment.

There are issues with the back up as there is a file which is required to be permanently open.

Is there a client/app/hotfix or anything out there which will allow a volume shadow copy type back up on an NT machine?

TIA
Gareth

Answer : volume shadow copy with NT4 Server

No, Volume Shadow Copy was first introducted 7 years after NT4 was released with Server 2003.  There is no way of using it on NT4.  You can look into other tools like Diskeeper software's Undelete program (if it's still compatible with NT4).  Your options are going to be limited with such an old OS (14 years now).  If your client needs this functionality, it's probably time to upgrade/migrate their software that requires NT4 to a newer system that does not.
