Hi,

 

We just installed Data Protection for SQL on a windows 2008 server running SQL 
2005.  We are getting the following error when we try a backup.  Has anyone 
seen this before?

Thanks,

Mike

 

Backup Failed.  ACO5402E . The virtual device set could not be created.

 

In the Event logs we get:

 

SQLVDI:Loc=CVDS::CreateEx,Desc=Create Memory, Error Code=(5)Access is denied.

 

 

We believe that it is a permissions error, but we can’t figure out what 
permission needs to change.  We are running the backup from an administrative 
account on the server and the scheduled backups run as a system level account.
