Rotating Veeam service account password using 3rd party application

Post by Backup.Operator »

Using this type of tool: https://delinea.com/products/secret-ser ... t#section2

I wonder if the Veeam Backup AD service account can be rotated daily, or if it is not supported.

Hi Backup Administrator,

Yes, you can rotate the password daily with Delinea.

However, since there’s currently no native integration between Veeam products and such password management tools, you’d need to build your own automation to update the credentials on the backup server with the new value — for example via PowerShell (Set-VBRCredentials) or the REST API.

Best,
