I hear what your saying with the "flush its data to disks on demand when signalled to do so before a snapshot can complete. This happens typically inside the MS OS eco-system."

However we also have Equallogic systems and they handle the SQL snapshot as needed with no problems. No agent on Microsoft system is needed with the Equallogics, the equallogics handle this all be them selves.


SO the question still is will our Open-e systems handle MS SQL snapshots properly?
