Can you "backup" a pre-existing Volume Shadow Copy

Hi Everyone,

We have had an issue with our DFSR environment, which essentially wiped some data and caused data to reappear on our spoke servers (which shouldn't have happened). I have logged a case with MS and am currently working on this, however, while I am in the process of resolving the issues with DFSR, I would like to ensure that I could potentially "backup" the Volume Shadow Copies/Previous Verisions, of the data that currently exist on some of our spoke servers...

Is what I am requesting/thinking even remotely possible?

My thought process was somehow the VSC snapshot could be mounted, and a robocopy job ran to another location to get a copy of the data.

The reasons for this is that I need to ensure I can still recover data for a certain period of time until I have the DFSR Replication Groups back in sync.

I am running Windows Server 2008 R2 SP1 ( a mix of standard and enterprise editions).

Any help or guidance on this would  be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in Advance!

Simon
