Running vssadmin in a bash shell?

[Pippo Baudo]

Sorry, I forgot: using Windows 7 64bit but I got similar problems with Windows XP and 2003.

I also tried VSHADOW.EXE to create a snapshot and I get:

VSHADOW.EXE 3.0 - Volume Shadow Copy sample client.
Copyright (C) 2005 Microsoft Corporation. All rights reserved.


(Option: Create shadow copy set)
(Gathering writer metadata...)
(Waiting for the asynchronous operation to finish...)
Error during the last asynchronous operation.
- Returned HRESULT = 0x80042318
- Error text: VSS_E_WRITER_INFRASTRUCTURE
- Please re-run VSHADOW.EXE with the /tracing option to get more details
