Do you get errors only with ASR DISK save sets?  Which NW version is running on clients?

This error only appeared for VSS save sets.

The customer indicated that all their machines were up to date because of a wsus implementation.

I suggested to look for and install hotfixes related to VSS.

Now, a couple of days later, this seems to solve the issue.

Hi im getting the same RPC error, but some of them are not ASR disk errors. They have the error;

1)7162:save: save of SYSTEM DB:\ to networkerserver.com failed.
:  Failed with error(s)

2) save: save of VSS SYSTEM FILESET:\ to networkerserver.com failed.

3) 7162:save: save of VSS ASR DISK:\ to networkerserver.com failed.

4) 7162:save: save of VSS SYSTEM SERVICES:\ to networkerserver.com failed.

5) save: save of VSS SYSTEM BOOT:\ to networkerserver.com failed.

6) 7162:save: save of VSS OTHER:\ to networkerserver.com failed
:  Failed with error(s)

I have tried stopping and starting networker services, VSS:*=off. Its been happening over a week.

Any help would be appreciated.

Here is a list of Microsoft articles that deal with common VSS errors. This is for Windows 2003 and 2008, along with some Exchange issue. I hope this helps.
