Functionality Removed From Windows Server 2003

The Windows Server 2003 release of VSS no longer supports the following:

• Writers cannot specify new file restore destinations (new target locations) at restore operations.

• Remounting an exposed shadow copy as a writable volume is no longer supported. The IVssBackupComponents::RemountReadWrite method is no longer available.

• Writers cannot specify explicitly included files (using IVssCreateWriterMetadata::AddIncludeFiles). Files can be added to a component only as part of a file set by using IVssCreateWriterMetadata::AddFilesToFileGroup, IVssCreateWriterMetadata::AddDatabaseFiles, or IVssCreateWriterMetadata::AddDatabaseLogFiles.

  Files can still be explicitly excluded from a component by using IVssCreateWriterMetadata::AddExcludeFiles.
