Since the Windows Bacula agent uses VSS snapshots to do its backups, what is
your script doing differently than simply configuring Bacula to backup e.g.
the D: drive (if your Exchange DBs are on D:)?  Honest question, not being
critical.  I've been doing backups as another replier mentioned, using
Windows Backup and then backing up that resulting image with Bacula.
 Perhaps that's overkill?

Thanks,
Mark
