We are in the process of addressing an audit finding to secure accounts that are members of the domain admins group. The options were to either enable the “account is sensitive and cannot be delegated” on the account or make the account a member of the “Protected Users Security Group in Windows Server | Microsoft Learn” which both will cause backup issues. This account is used to backup both AD and VMs in the environment. Has anyone run into this? If so, how did you resolve it?
We have a lot Team sites. Now we are getting site which emailaddress is skipped from the backup with the reason: The SMTP address has no mailbox associated with it.It has a emailaddress. Team site is active. I compared the site with some others, but I see no difference.Does anyone have a solution?Thanks in advance!

Hi All,I need some guidance on the best backup type to use for our domain controllers on azure vms. We are in the process of setting up a service account for the active directory granular recovery, however as for the VM it self what is the best Virtual machine backup type to use ? The options within the VM group configuration are as follows; Application AwareUses in guest application plug-ins to assist the Virtual Server Agent quiescing and providing granular application level recoverability.File System and application consistentUses VM restore point to perform a point-in-time application consistent snapshot of all the managed disks of the VM.Crash consistentUses Microsoft Azure software snapshot to allow a basic backup of the virtual machine.Application-based backupsPerforms application discovery and configures backups by installing an in-guest agent.
Hi All,I’m hoping for some guidance from those who have completed this step of the deployment (Complete the Guided Setup for Active Directory) I want to give the service account least privileged access to the domain as I am not comfortable with giving the service account full domain admin rights as it has been suggested by the deployment team.Has anyone got a break down of steps to achieve the above in Active directory? from what I've seen looks like we need to perform some of the required permissions within ADSI Edit?Any guidance would be great especially from those who have implemented this successfully.
