VSS_E_VOLUME_NOT_LOCAL

VSS_E_VOLUME_NOT_LOCAL The volume requested for VSS backup is not mounted on the local host. VSS shadow copies are tied to the local system and its providers.

What to check

  • Confirm whether the backup target is a local volume, a network path, a redirected mount, or storage owned by another host.
  • Use a supported remote backup agent or create the snapshot on the host that owns the volume.
  • If the path is a cluster resource, check which node currently owns it before launching the backup.
