Detailed Description

This cmdlet clears the custom VSS settings of the specified job and restores their default values.

VSS (Volume Shadow Services) is a Windows OS service allowing to copy files of running applications that can be modified at the moment of copying. The VSS-aware applications typically are Active Directory, Microsoft SQL, Microsoft Exchange, Sharepoint, etc. To create a transactionally consistent backup of a VM running VSS-aware applications without shutting them down, Veeam Backup & Replication uses application-aware image processing. It allows backup the data fully and consistently.

You can run this cmdlet with any kind of jobs.
