Hello @MightyDuck03 ! What is the saveset on the configuration? is it `All` or individual saveset listed ? Try taking a backup of the C drive from the client using `save` command or the NetWorker user console.
yes, the saveset is all . the backup works is I use all-ntfs with VSS:*=off. but we need that disaster recovery . its not really an option to run the backup manually from the client side
I ran a backup for drive C:\ and also for the disaster recovery saveset from the client using networker user . it worked for both as you can see in the output .
I tried again from networker side , but again , the same error occured.
