Hi,
I'm running into an issue when adding our Sharepoint farm into Backup Exec. This particular web server is public facing and as a best pratice we have administrative shares disabled. The error I get pertains to the shares being disabled. Is the a way to backup Sharepoint without having to enable adminsitrative shares?
Here's the error I get in Backup Exec :
An error was encountered while attempting to browse the contents of Server Farm 1 <Web Server>. Although the specified server is a SharePoint resource, Backup Exec cannot cofirm the topology. Review your Sharepoint credentials, and ensure that the services are running on the Web servers.
Here's the error in the event viewer of the web sharepoint:
