Cluster virtual node backups fail after upgrade to 7.2.1 with
Hello. We just upgraded from 7.1.3 to 7.2.1. Regular (non-clustered) server clients back up fine after the upgrade, as do physical cluster node clients. However, the virtual servers clients on all clusters now fail when their save sets are set to "All".
The log contains lines similar to this for all cluster virtual nodes:
* cluster5:All nsrexec: authtype nsrexec
* cluster5:All savefs: Diagnostic: This client is not licensed for VSS.
* cluster5:All savefs: cannot retrieve client resources
* cluster5:All No 'NSR client' resource for client cluster5
savefs cluster5: failed.
The "VSS" error was occuring before the upgrade to 7.2.1 and did not cause a problem before.
After doing some experimenting, I found that if I changed the virtual server client "Save set:" from "All" to "R:" (or some other disk on the virtual node), the backup did not fail.
The problem seems to have something to do with now using "Save set: All" on the virtual nodes. The documentation on pages 574/575 of the NetWorker 7.2 manual shows that "All" is legitimate to use on virtual server clients.
The physical cluster host nodes work fine with "Save Sets: All".
Has anyone else ever seen this problem? Any ideas why "All" savesets would not work on virtual server clients after upgrading to 7.2.1, but specific disk savesets such as "R:" and "S:" works OK?
Thanks for any help!

If that doesn't help, delete cluster client definition and recreate it again (due to "cannot retrieve client resources" messages).

Try to disable VSS by
"Client setup"--> "Miscellaneous" -->"Save operation"
then enter value "VSS:*=off".
refer to windows administrator guide 7.2 pages 130

you can also try with adding remote user with enough privileges and password under remote tab on client.
By default SYSTEM account is used and I have similar problems with virtual node. After I entered remote user and password (just for test put in administrator rights user) and it started working. I Don't know why or what was the reason but you can try.
