There error is Event Type: Error Event Source: TsmVssPlugin Event Category: None Event ID: 4112 Date: 10/29/2012 Time: 8:09:54 PM User: NT AUTHORITYSYSTEM Computer: TORMN02 Description: VSS processing encountered error 'E_OUTOFMEMORY' in the Volume Shadow Copy API 'QueryStatus:DoSnapshotSet'.

Hi Julie,

It appears that your VM running out of memory or other system resources. The event that occurs is not due to the PA File Sight but looks like a system error. You will need review your VM and make sure that you have enough memory allocated that the backup can occur. Here is a link to more information on the "DoSnapshotSet" & "E_OUTOFMEMORY".
