I have a production server running Backup Exec 2010 R2. It does not have any installed updates. The server is running 2008 R2 Enterprise edition 64-bit. Every weekend it has been running a full backup of the server. It runs differentials on the data partion throughout the week. It is used as one our backup servers and also houses some sql databases listed under Microsoft SQL Server "BKUPEXEC".
Recently the full backup job started failing. I know it is related to the SQL database because I can remove it from the selection list and the test run completes fine. As soon as I check Microsoft SQL Server "BKUPEXEC" on the selections list the test job starts to fail again. I have checked my other BUE 2010 R2 servers and don't see an instance of Microsoft SQL Server "BKUPEXEC".
The failed job log on the backup list the following error:
------------------------
Final error: 0xe000fe3c - Before you can back up this resource, you must purchase and install a license key for the appropriate Backup Exec agent. See Job Log for details.
Final error category: Security Errors
For additional information regarding this error refer to link V-79-57344-65084
------------------------------
The failed test run job log list the following error:
Logon account provided does not have appropriate priveledges to backup SQL database
It appears to be a licensing issue from the job log article, but the test job failure log indicates security permissions. Which is it and how do I verify?
