VSS_E_NO_SNAPSHOTS_IMPORTED

VSS_E_NO_SNAPSHOTS_IMPORTED An import operation completed without successfully importing any shadow copies. The backup-components document, transportable snapshot metadata, provider support, or target storage state may not match.

What to check

  • Confirm that the source snapshot set was created as transportable and that the target environment supports the same provider workflow.
  • Inspect VSS and provider events for the first failed snapshot in the set rather than treating the final count of zero as the root cause.
  • Check that all required LUNs, disks, and volumes are visible and online on the import target.
