v To configure the NetBackup service account (Exchange 2010)
1. In Active Directory Users and Computers, select the Users directory.
2. Right-click on the Administrator account, click Copy, and create an account for NetBackup.
Create a user account that has a mailbox with a unique name. A unique name is one that does not already exist within the Exchange Organization. This name cannot be contained as a set of characters in an existing name.
For example: EXCH1 is entered as the unique mailbox name, and other mailbox names such as EXCH1BACKUP or BACKUPEXCH1 exist. The backup or restore of individual mailboxes or both fail.

New-ManagementRole -Name EWSImpersonationRole -Parent ApplicationImpersonation
New-ManagementRoleAssignment -Role EWSImpersonationRole -User Administrator
