NetBackup™ for Microsoft SharePoint Server Administrator's Guide

Configuring the logon account for the NetBackup Legacy Network Service and the NetBackup Legacy Client Service

The NetBackup Legacy Network Service must log on with the Local System account. Optionally, you can also configure the NetBackup Legacy Client Service with the Local System account.

Configure the service for the hosts where the Index Files or Index databases and where the document libraries reside. For the backups that use Granular Recovery Technology (GRT), configure the service on all SQL Server back-end servers.

To configure the logon account for the NetBackup Legacy Network Service and the NetBackup Legacy Client Service

  1. In the Windows Services application, open the NetBackup Legacy Network Service entry.
  2. On the Log On tab, provide the following:
    • For the Log on as account, select Local System account.

    • Type the password.

  3. Stop and start the NetBackup Legacy Network Service.
  4. (Optional) Follow the same process for the NetBackup Legacy Client Service.
