Symantec Backup Exec Service Account Login Failure Error on SQL Server Clustered
Hi, We are trying to troubleshoot a multiple login attempt when our backup exec run to backup our database backup files (.bak, .trn extension). We only try to backup the backup drive not the entire drive where the mdf and ldf resides. We are puzzled why the backup exec need to connect to SQL Server (we are not backing up the physical file of the database)? The backup service account is not create on SQL and we believe we shouldn't add it because we really dont need to as we dont backup the database only the .bak files. How can we solve this login attempt issue? On our SQL Server we are getting this error every time backup exec runs: Login failed for user 'symantec/ourbackupserviceaccount'. Reason: Could not find a login matching the name provided.
