    This is a MS issue, check their support page. Perhaps rebooting the box will bounce VSS services back to operational state.

    Also check the event logs of windows. It clearly will give the error code of VSS. Search the Microsoft site using the error code. You will get the solution.

    Also make sure your VSS writer service is started.
