Calling Mount on MSFT_DiskImage.ImagePath="\\\\filestore\\image\\vhd",StorageType=2 with parameters Access=ReadWrite, NoDriveLetter=True failed with error 'The I/O operation has been aborted because of either a thread exit or an application request. ' (HRESULT 0x800703e3)

If image creation is failing with this error, it may be caused by antivirus software trying to scan the SQL Clone file store. Try adding the file store to your antivirus software's exclusions list so it is no longer scanned.
