SharePoint SQL Cluster
Hello, I'm currently trialing Veritas and am having issues getting it to backup our Sharepoint DB's as they are in a cluster. It says that before you can backup or restore, you must install the appropriate Backup Exec. Both servers in the are setup and have the client installed. It is looking for the cluster name. I have configured the sqlcli on the Veritas server for the cluster name but still no luck. Can anyone assist as to have I can get the backups to see the cluster name? If I cannot get Veritas to work with our Sharepoint setup I will have to look at another product. Cheers
Installing 20.4 unable to authenticate with the user and password
Veritas support has been absymal on this. I have been speaking with several technicians for the past two weeks and none of them have provided any resolutions. I am trying to update Backup Exec 16 to 20.4 as standalone. The serever passes most of the enviroment checks successfully but has a warning that the current user does not have permissions to log on to SQL server instances that have a designation of '**' even though the account i am logged in tohas full permissions to the SQL database, can act as part of the OS, log in as service account, and create tokens. The Backup Exec SQL Upgrade Check will randomly fail. sometimes it does, soemtimes it doesnt. I'm unsure why because the SQL instance is within the compatibility range at 2008 R2S2 and cannot be upgraded. If i make it to the start instal screen, it will refuse the domain credentials we used to set up the backup server initially, suceed with local adin credentials, run for 30 minutes then fail again saying it was unable to authenticate with the user and password provided, which have been tested in RDP. Please someone help.

Restarting the SQL Server service or the server may correct the problem. V-79-57344-863 - The SQL Server backup interface has reported a problem. Further details can be found in the job log. Restarting the SQL Server service or the server may correct the problem. Backup - Snapshot Technology: Initialization failure on: "System?State". Snapshot technology used: Microsoft Volume Shadow Copy Service (VSS). V-79-10000-11233 - VSS Snapshot error. A Microsoft Volume Shadow Copy Service (VSS) snapshot is already running on the target computer. Only one snapshot can run at a time. Try running the job later.
