VSS Snapshot warning. File %BeBootDrive%\bootmgr is not present on the snapshot.

Workaround:

Exclude the ASR writer from the list of approved writers

ASR writer id is ‘{BE000CBE-11FE-4426-9C58-531AA6355FC4}’.
1. Go to:  Start > Run, key in regedt32 press Enter.
2. Then go to the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Symantec\Backup Exec for Windows Servers \Engine\Shadow Copy Components\
3. Then create a new Additional Not Authorized Writers key.
4. Then, in the Additional Not Authorized Writers key, create a new String value under that key namedASR, with a value of {BE000CBE-11FE-4426-9C58-531AA6355FC4}Completing these steps causes Backup Exec to ignore the ASR components.

All backups that have the System State selected and have uEFI will need to have the job recreated or System State removed from the job manually and re-selected.
