Hi all,
I am going to use netbackup to backup the ms sql server 2008 db,
however, when i setup the sql server properties, no matter on the db server itself or the netbackup management server,
it also failed.
the error is "Application coneciton failed for %SERVERNAME% Please select a differetn SQL Server host and instance, or press 'canel' to exit the Netbackup for SQL Server Graphical User Interface.
do you guys know what's going on?
I pretty confirm the user id and password are working well.
Thanks

I'd bet it's Windows UAC. Make sure you start NetBackup SQL Client with right-click, Run as Administrator.

did select the correct SLQ server and instance name?
you might need to double check with SQL admin to get the correct instance name?

Does your user name have local admin rights on the SQL server?
UAC disabled?
Please read through this discussion: https://www-secure.symantec.com/connect/forums/ms-sql-agent-application-connection-failed-servername Quite a number of things that you can check...

Is it clustered? If so, you need to specify virtual host name in Host box.
