Creating the Backup Agent Service Account and Mailbox on Windows 2000
To use the Backup Agent to back up individual mailboxes and folders, you must
first prepare the Microsoft Exchange Server for the Backup Agent by completing
the steps in this section in the following sequence:
1. Create a Backup Agent Service Account on the Windows server. This
account must be created as described in the following sections.
2. Create an Exchange mailbox for the Backup Agent Service Account.
3. Assign the appropriate permissions to the mailbox.
Note: You can automatically create an account. Refer to "Configuring the
Backup Agent" later in this chapter. However, if you want to manually create the
account or want more control in the way the account is created, follow the steps
in the procedures on the next two pages.
To create the Backup Agent Service Account and Mailbox:
1. Open the Administrative Tools program group and select Active Directory
Users and Computers on the domain controller.
2. Expand the tree from the console and click Users.
3. Click Action.
4. Click New and User.
5. Enter a user name and password. For this document, the sample user name
DBAGENT is used.
