Backup Location Credentials / How to Change Them
We have a number of TI 2015, 2016 & 2017 backups for desktops on our domain. All of them point to a common repository on our network, an external hard drive that is connected to one of the servers. When the definitions were made and the connection to that device was established, certain credentials were entered, using a domain account. Now, if that account changes its password, all of the previously stored credentials no longer work and the backup fails.
My first question is, how do I change the stored credentials for the backup without establishing a whole new definition?
My next question is, is there some way to give the backup permanent permission to access the backup location? If not it appears that I'll have to establish a userid and password that never changes. What's the best practice here, or what do others do?
