Exchange 2010 & Credentials on Information Store

I am trying to backup our Exchange 2010 Server.

Somehow while testing the credentials the test fails on the Information Store at the Mailbox Database.

The test on the Public Folder Database is working.

    Hi

    What happen if you run the job does that fails too

    Ensure BE 2012 is fully patched up with all updates with sp1a and other updates using live update

    If this is exchange DAG ensure remote is installed and updated too on all mailbox node and CAS node of DAG

    Finally ensure the account used to backup exchange DAG is part of organization management group and exchange serve group

    Hope that helps

    Thanks

    The job fails, too.

    In what groups do I have to put the user in? I have put him into "Organisation Management", what else.

    Did you restart the BE services after adding to "Organisation Management" ?

    The Backup Exec account for Exchange should be set as the following:

    1. The account must be an Exchange Full Administrator (Exchange 2003), Exchange Organization Administrator (Exchange 2007), and Organization Management (Exchange 2010) at the top level of Exchange.

    2. The account must be either a Domain Administrator (Recommended, ensure that Domain Admins is a member of the Local Administrator's group on the Exchange Server) or a Local Administrator on the Exchange Server.

    3. The account must have an active mailbox on the Exchange Server.

    4. The account must have received an e-mail via the mailbox.

    5. The account must have sent an e-mail via the mailbox.

    6. The account must be named so that it is unique within 5 characters. (Refer to the TechNote below for steps to test this).

    7. The account must be visible to the Global Address List, not hidden.

    8. Make sure the default system logon account of Backup Exec and Backup Exec Service Account are the same.
