VDS_E_SHRINK_IN_PROGRESS
VDS_E_SHRINK_IN_PROGRESS means another shrink or defragmentation operation is already active. Storage layout operations are intentionally serialized because competing operations can invalidate each other’s assumptions.
What to do
- Wait for the existing operation to finish or fail before starting another shrink.
- Check backup, maintenance, and optimization tasks that may be operating on the same volume.
- Do not terminate a storage operation simply to run another one unless the impact and recovery path are understood.
Correlate the active shrink or defragmentation job with the same volume identity before retrying. If no expected task is visible, inspect the storage-management caller and event timeline instead of assuming the volume is idle.
