Message

The VSS application writer or the VSS provider is in a bad state. Either it was already in a bad state or it entered a bad state during the current operation.

Explanation

This error can occur when the shadow copy provider fails to create a snapshot for the requested volume. The most common reason for this is that the required snapshot management licenses are not installed on the computers in the cluster, and the hardware provider does not handle the request to create a snapshot.

User Action

Ensure that the required licenses are installed on the server, and then retry the backup.
