Does the spsearch account have admin rights on the domain? It needs to be a member of the local Administrators or Backup Operators group on the machine. If the account is a Domain Admin this will happen automatically. If not, check the local security on the machine to make sure you have placed spsearch in the appropriate groups.

Also, check this registry key to make sure the SPSEARCH account name is listed as a REG_DWORD entry with a value of (1) on the computer that is getting the errors:
\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\VSS\VssAccessControl

Its a domain controller, and its server 2008 r2. I have added the account spsearch to the administrators group and backup operators. I also verified that the registry key has the account and a value of 1. Still no luck
