    I have Windows 2003 R2 SP2 and I can't get Volume Snaphots working on the 6TB
    drive with 3TB Free. I applied HF KB833167 and still the VSS wont create snap
    shots. Log messages:
    EventID 13 - The shadow copy of volume E: could not grow its shadow copy
    storage on volume E:
    EventID 28 - The shadow copy of volume E: could not be created due to a
    failure in creating the necessary on disk structures
    EventID 35 - The shadow copies of volume E: were aborted because the shadow
    copy storage failed to grow

    After reading other postings and specialists on the web, I need to ask if
    there is a functional limit to a volume size when using VSS?
