MS SQL credential

  • Go to the Settings tab, click the Credentials option and select MSSQL Credential
  • Add MS SQL server instance using the ‘Add SQL server instance’ option, where you can add ‘n’ number of SQL server instances when required to backup.
  • Now proceed to provide ‘SQL server connection properties’ where the user will be required to choose a server instance and select the authentication level as SQL Server authentication.
  • Once done, provide user credentials for the SQL server, so that databases can be accessed for backup purposes.
  • Once done providing all required details, click next to proceed configuring backups for the selected SQL server instance.

Information Note:

If SQL server instance properties are already saved, the user will be asked whether to proceed with the previous authentication:

  • If clicked ‘yes’ then you will be directed to configure backups with the previous configuration.
  • If clicked ‘no’, then new credential properties should be provided for authentication.
