VSSadmin writers failed
I have a Server 2008 R2 fully patched that I inherited.
Tried to run Symantec System Recovery 2013r2.
I get failed snapshot and here is a list of the writers that failed:
C:\Users\Administrator>vss admin list writers
vssadmin 1.1 - Volume Shadow Copy Service administrative command-line tool

Waiting for responses.
These may be delayed if a shadow copy is being prepared.
