SQLAgent$BKUPEXEC

Hello experts,

I have the original SQL Server Agent Service running and I want to set the SQLAgent$BKUPEXEC Service to automatic
since it's now setup to manual.

When the The BackupExec Job ends it restarts the SQLAgent$BKUPEXEC and the job fails

When I stopped the SQL Server Agent Service, the BackupExec Job doesn't fail?

Any ideas on why they don't like each other? or perhaps I should set the SQLAgent$BKUPEXEC to automatic with the same logon credintials of the SQL Server Agent Service

l'd really appreciate your advicet

Thanks

    I have managed to resolve this problem too
    Just in case someone wants to use both the BE SQL Agent and the Original SQL Server Agent Service to backup the SQL DB.

    Make sure the SQLAgent$BKUPEXEC is set to start Auto and give it the same credintials of which you used during the AOFO wizard.

    Hope this help

    And if you don't have AOFO.
    Then give the SQLAgent$BKUPEXEC Service the credintials as the BE Service
