Which VNX commands that can: grant your account 'Backup Operator' rights on the windows box thanks

bergec · Answer

In order to grant Backup/Restore priviliges to the account easiest way is to use Computer Management MMC and add the user to the Backup Operator local group of the CIFS server and of the server from where you run the copy

Instead of Backup Operator I usually use the local Administrators group

This is a right / privilege tied to your Windows AD account so you need to configure it on your Windows domain controller
