VeeamBackup default sa password for SQL database?

Post by Kara-T »

Hey community,

I'm trying to inventory our Veeam Backups with Docusnap X and in order to do that I need the SQL authentication data, which we didn't set up.

So I'm asking you guys if there is a default sa password set up for the SQL database "VeeamBackup" when installing Veeam Backup & Replication.

Thanks in advance!

Hi Kara,

The auth. data was configured during the B&R installation. There is no hardcoded password.

Thanks

Oof thank you wishr, this means that I'm unable to inventory our backup, unless I set up an SQL authentication as well, right? Or is this impossible now that we've already chosen to use Windows authentication during the install of B&R?

It depends on what auth. options are offered in Docusnap itself ;). However, It should be possible to use any DB management tool to connect to the database using windows auth. and create a user, then use it for inventory scanning if windows auth. is not supported by Docusnap.
