I can not give you a total answer but I have defragmented volumes that
have shadowcopy enabled and so far none of the shadowcopies have been
deleted that I have seen.  I have not specifically looked for them but I
will check on this and let you know.  This is on a Server 2003 Standard
server.

I've read that defragmenting a partition with shadowcopy enabled causes
the shadowcopies to be deleted.

I've also read stuff about the Vista defragmenter being shadowcopy aware

http://support.microsoft.com/kb/942092

Does anyone know if the Server 2008 defragmenter is shadowcopy aware?

Thanks for your help.
