Error 4818 Event ID 57860

[SaleemK]

We got the Veritas BE 10 runing perfectly.
But every night when the backup system works it generate an error in the event viewer and here below is a copy of it..
We tried to contact Dell because we just bought our server from them including the Veritas software but they couldn't help because they don't support the software.

Here is the error hopfully someone can help us..

An error occurred while attempting to log in to the following server: "VLSERVER\BKUPEXEC".
 SQL error number: "4818".
 SQL error message: "Login failed for user 'VLSERVER\Backup'.
".

hi Saleem,

You should have had an option from dell to purchase a support contract as well. Basically the service account in Backup Exec cant logon to the SQL/MSDE instance that Backup Exec  uses to run on. If the job is not failing then I wouldnt worry about it. You can use the beutility and change the database access and add the service account and grant access to the database - it may work.

Thanks
