Hi,
I'm currently running a new Server with Proxmox 9 and a single Windows 2025 VM on it, serving as Exchange Server in our Environment.
I installed Virtio 0.1.285 SCSI drivers.
For Application awarene Backups I'm running Windows Server Backup, which was fine when I tested in the beginning.
Now after everything is productive I'm running into problems:
The Server crashes when the update is nearly complete - I assume that's when the logs should be truncated and the vss worker is being executed.

I already tried different Versions of the VirtIO driver and set my SCSI Controller from "VirtIO SCSI Single" to "VirtIO SCSI" => No Change.

Since I read something about AMD CPUs causing this:
I'm running an Intel Silver 4314 CPU

The Windows virtual disk module vhdmp.sys attempted to write to read-only memory. This is recognized as an issue in Windows Server 2025.
* Windows Server Backup creates a virtual disk named vhdx as the backup destination and performs the backup. This issue arises from that process.

Why are you asking on the Proxmox forum?

You should ask your questions on the Microsoft forums.
*Since it likely cannot be analyzed with a mini dump, you will need to submit a full dump to Microsoft's paid support.

I assumed it could be a SCSI/VirtIO Problem and hoped someone would have means to mitigate this. But if it's a Windows error I will take it there. Thank you.
