changed password of windows server 2008 R2

Post by coolgod »

hi all,
am planning to change administrator password on my windows server 2008 r2 (there's only 1 account) where veeam br 6.5 is running.

i want to know what other passwords i need to change for veeam to continue running correctly.

Thx

Assuming that corresponding Veeam Services (Veaam Backup EM Service, Veeam Backup Service, etc) are run under this account, you should change specified password there, as well.

Thanks.

And also all the jobs using application-aware processing, if you used the same user to access VSS libraries.

Then I would also add the account used to add vCenter into Veeam B&R console (if, again, used the same).

Btw, here's the trick to change the password for all the jobs at once.
