I have run Volume Shadow Copy Service all the time on live volumes and have never had any damage that I have perceived though when doing a serious backup I like the PC/Server to have been booted from a CD/DVD before creating the definitive image. This method will make a perfect copy including all the boot sectors which wouldn't happen when running live.

Can the Volume Shadow Copy service reliably backup Access MDB data files while they are in use? Or are we still stuck with asserting connection control, kicking everybody off, and then finally backing up?
