Backupexec system rights needed

What are the minimum permissions needed for Backup Exec to run.  The Backup Exec service account is currently an Enterprise Admin and that seems way too high.  But whatever level of access it still will have to have the ability to backup AD.

Thank you

Can I integrate vSphere and the SANs to use BE 2012 to backup directly from LUNS and not impact production servers.  I know about this conceptually, but have no experience with BE 2012 to that extent.

In order to backup AD, the BE login id needs to be a domain admin
