Recently promoted domain controller with Veritas backup exec installed.
Backups now fail saying cannot attach to system state require admin
priviledges.
Changed veritas settings to use a domain account instead of local account.
Backup still not succesful.
Any help would be great.
-Thanks
 
William,

Remember, to back up System State, you need to be a member of Domain Admins
in each Domain you are backing up (in the case of a multiple domain forest.)
So make sure that the account running the Backup Agent on each DC is a
member of Domain Admins. For security purposes, create a new account for
this explicit purpose and disable its ability to log on to any machine.
