Veritas NetBackup™ for Sybase Administrator's Guide

Configuring the logon account for the NetBackup Client Service for NetBackup for Sybase

Because the NetBackup Client Service is started by default under the SYSTEM account, you also must give special attention to database user authentication. The SYSTEM account does not have permission to connect to the target database if you use OS authentication instead of passwords.

If you use OS authentication, run the NetBackup client service under an account that has SYSDBA privileges.

To configure the logon account for the NetBackup Client Service for NetBackup for Sybase

  1. Open the Windows Services application.
  2. Double-click on the NetBackup Client Service entry.
  3. Click on the Log On tab.
  4. Type the account name with SYSDBA privileges.
  5. Type the password.
  6. Click OK.
  7. Stop and start the NetBackup Client Service.
  8. Close the Services control panel application.
