Failure again. I specifically reinstalled the agent last night and rebooted the servers this morning then ran the job. It failed on all three servers that I tried this on. Do I need to manually uninstall the agent then try to reinstall it?

Checking the server shows a bunch of volume shadow copy errors. And an error of the Veritas account that backup exec runs under trying to login to the sql server, where naturally, it doesn't have permission.
An error occurred while attempting to log in to the following server: "GLFHCDB1\BLAH1".
SQL error number: "4818".
