Maintenance Backup & Restricted User Mode

  • By having a database in Restricted User Mode, will that prevent the backup job in the maintenance plan from running. I'm trying to figure out why the backup(maintenance plan) didn't run.

  • what level of rights does the account have which is backing up the database?

    restricted user only allows members of sysadmin/dbcreator/db_owner roles to connect to the database, so if the account only has db_backupoperator then that would be the cause of the error, if it has SA access then no.

    if you could post the error message you get from the backup task we could take a deeper look
