The application log shows that the TsmVssPlugin reports that the writers received a backup request. There are entries for the Registry, ASR, Performance, Comm,, System, Task, etc writers basically saying that they received a backup request. They are informational. The only one that shows an error ist he following and it points me back to the TSM log:
VSS processing encountered error 'VSS_E_PROVIDER_VETO' in the Volume Shadow Copy API 'AddToSnapshotSet'. For more information, see the IBM Tivoli Storage Manager client error log.

Kind regards, Eric van Loon AF/KLM Storage Engineering -----Original Message----- From: ADSM: Dist Stor Manager [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Michael P Hizny Sent: maandag 21 januari 2013 14:51 To: [email protected] Subject: backup Systemstate error Hi, We have a windows 2008 R2 server being backup up to a TSM 6.2.2.30 server using client version 6.4.0. The client was upgraded from 6.3 to try to fix this problem. We are getting a failure of the systemstate backup. I have deleted the TSM systemstate file system to try to fix this to no avail. We have also restarted the server. The rest of the file system backups run fine. Has anyone seen this before? The backjup domain is set to all-local. We have also tried taking the systemstate out of the backup and the results are the same. Here are the logs: Dsmsched.log: 01/20/2013 18:00:21 --- SCHEDULEREC OBJECT BEGIN NT_SERVER_SCHEDULE 01/20/2013 18:00:00 01/20/2013 18:00:21 Incremental backup of volume '\\sparrow\c$' 01/20/2013 18:00:21 Incremental backup of volume '\\sparrow\e$' 01/20/2013 18:00:21 Incremental backup of volume 'SYSTEMSTATE' 01/20/2013 18:01:06 ANS1959I Removing previous incomplete group '\System State\0\SystemState' Id:0-145799926 01/20/2013 18:01:07 Backing up object 'ASR Writer' component 'ASR' using shadow copy. 01/20/2013 18:01:07 Backing up object 'ASR Writer' component 'This is the path to the boot BCD store and the boot managers.
