Hi, is it possible to remove the backup exec server from the domain without needing to re-install/reconfigure?
It was originally setup as a domain joined server but most recommendations now seem to advise having the server as a non domain server. If i just remove it from the domain, will it all still work or is there a load of hard wired settings that use the fqdn of the sever etc?
BE is designed to be part of a domain because of the numerous permissions needed to do backups and restores. If you remove the BE Server from the domain, you would encounter numerous problems during your operations.
Hi, thanks for the reply - surely that is the point in being able to have various login credentials, that the BE server does not need to be part of a domain to backup a server, it just needs the right credentials.
I completely agree with pkh
Can you share these "recommendation" you are referring too, please.
