I use Backup Exec 2010 fully updated with my Windows 2008 R2 Hyper-V server that runs all my virtual machines. The virtual machines uses Windows Operation Systems from 2003 to 2008 R2. Some are webservers and some are domain controllers etc.
The thing is my backup server is in one domain, the Hyper-V host server in another and the virtual machines in a third domain.
So when i create the backup job with GRT-enabled i give the hyper-v hosts its credentials. But i don't see any option to give credentials to the virtual machines.
So the backup status is:
Completed with exceptions:
Backup- VRTSRV::\\(hostservername)\Hyper-V?Virtual?Machine\(Virutalmachine name)
V-79-57344-38730 - Backup Exec failed to authenticate with virtual machine 'Virtualmachine name' and was unable to collect the necessary metadata to restore individual application items. You cannot perform GRT-enabled restores of application data from this backup.
I guess their is a way around this. So i don't need dubble backups. Both from the host server and the virtualmachine.
