Domain user requirement for SMB share backups
This step is required for Windows backup hosts for SMB share backups only. You must log on to the NetBackup client service and the NetBackup legacy network service as a domain user to perform the tasks described in the following sections.
Note:
The Windows domain user must be a part of the local administrators group.
To log on to the NetBackup services as a domain user:
- Make sure that the NetBackup client service and the NetBackup legacy network service are running.
- In Windows Services, double-click the NetBackup service.
- Check the Log on tab: if any of these services is not logged on as the domain user, change the logon to the domain account and restart the service. If both the services are not logged on as the domain user, you must do it in the following sequence:
Log on to the first service as domain user and restart the service.
Log on to the second service as a domain user and restart the service.
- Make sure that all NetBackup services are running.
- Relaunch the NetBackup UI.
