We have until recently have had our Veeam service user part of Domain admin, and we are moving away from this now.
I know I have to add the Veeam service user to the local Administrators group of the physical machines to be able to run backup.
When It comes to VMware I have looked at https://helpcenter.veeam.com/docs/backu ... ml?ver=100
I and thought I had configured it correctly, but I guess not.
Do I have to some users under Guest Processing > Guest OS Credentials ?
When I select a VM now, and run a backup I get these errors...
