No need to start a new thread for this. I replied a few days ago that you need to check with the vendor of the
tool. It is likely that the tool vendor need you to be sysadmin, ignoring the fact that SQL Server allow you
to do backup is you are db_backupoerator (etc).

Hello,
I´ve some SQL Server databases that the backups are being
made with integration of the Omniback Online Agent for SQL
Server. At this moment i´ve one user configured for this
integration and everything goes fine but the problem is
that this user have 'Sysadmin' permissions, if i remove
the user from the sysadmin in sql server i can do it if i
give to this user the 'db owner' permission.
Until now everything looks fine and normal.
My question is that i want to restrict to the maximum the
permissions of this user and if i give(put) this user in
the db_backupoperator database role, that is suposed to
work, when running the backup the report shows 0(zero)KB
done.
How can i resolve this issue? I really need to limit the
access of this user for security and administration
pruposes.
Best Regards
