I would check for snapshots (vssadmin or diskshadow) and disk filters (fltmc).

I'm seeing a large number of errors in the event log of our file server, and they reference a number of GUIDs for which there seem to be no matching volumes. This makes a fair amount of sense - we've recently refactored our drives, and in the process eliminated all of our iSCSI presentations for this server, replacing them with VMDKs - as you have figured out by now, we're a VMware shop. The eventIDs are below - there are several of each error/warning, one set per GUID that doesn't match a volume. The question in my mind is "how do I get rid of the references to the missing volume?"

In case of a cluster volume, this may be a transient failure during failover.
