VSS Writers and their Corresponding Services

When backup operations fail due to failed writer "vssadmin list writers" can be utilized to check the current status of the writers.  However, it can be difficult to determine which service needs restarted to correct the writer.  The following list was obtained from a blog at http://www.planetcobalt.net/sdb/vss_writers.shtml.
