Veeam backup failure

Error during VeeamZip backup attempt: "An error occurred while saving the snapshot: failed to quiesce the virtual machine"

Some of the VMware KB suggestions include:

2069952
2034002

But, the virtual disk service suggestion didn't help, and the other suggestion requires a reboot, which was not possible in my situation.

The solution I found was to modify the VMware tools installation to REMOVE the VMware tools' VSS option.
