The backup failed against a host where the vssadmin list writers return with one Writer name: 'Cluster Database' with status: Waiting for completion.

May I know what is the service name in Windows 2008 so I could stop/start to fix it?

If no, may I know what is the action plan ?

Writer name: 'Cluster Database'
Writer Id: {41e12264-35d8-479b-8e5c-9b23d1dad37e}
Writer Instance Id: {4a035936-24e2-4688-b1c6-20352a11ee6c}
State: [5] Waiting for completion
Last error: No error

    Hi,
    The "Cluster Database"is the cluster VSS Writer.
    Please try to start the cluster service on your nodes.
    Or you can try to Re-register the VSS components.

    Thanks for your time!
    Best Regards,
