I had some strange issues yesterday with drivers/preboot configs, so I saw I had some updates available (I was already SP1), so I figured I'll just install those while I'm at it.
Everything still seems fine today (fixed the preboot issue) except one of my file copy jobs that happens post image was failing. I finally traced it down to the file itself was missing on the server. The folder existed, but was empty.
I can't be sure installing the 6 updates I did yesterday did this, but I checked permissions on the file itself and most are read only except myself so not sure what else would've done it.
Anyone else seen anything like this? This is the 2nd time that volume shadow copies on that server have saved me a headache (yesterday I also used it to restore my preboot drivers to what they were the night before I messed with them).
This is where the empty file was located, as soon as I put it back from backup I was fine again. I'd suggest anyone who can turn on Volume Shadow copies on the server does!
