    I am able to use the transact sql generated by the maint plan and create a backup. is this a 64 bit issue?

  • I am successfully(now) performing backup routines on our SQL 2005 9.0.3050 release x64 machines.... I have the owner of the plans being a sqlservice account with the permissions to run the backups. What I also had to do was change the owner of the job to the sqlservice account also to get it to work correctly, even though my login is full admin. The release you are at does have date issues with maintenace plans and you may want to update to KB933508 to see if that helps
