What exactly do you mean by "participate in domain"? Do you try to join backup server to domain or something?

Hi

Yes, the customer try to join backup server to domain.
Even if the customer do it, is it possible to continue to perform backup ?

Hi
Thanks !
Don't we also need to change the something registry key ?
By the below forum, if we rename veeam backup server host, we should change registry value.

I actually went from domain to standalone. I just had to make some adjustments with service account and had to reconnect to the SQL database.
