Can you please tell me if these are the SQL credentials that you are speaking of, the SQL agent credentials in the Control Panel?

Did you recently upgrade to a new platform release. If so, these were likely created as part of the upgrade process. From memory SQL was added to credential manager in 11.26 and later. At the time of upgrade, any SQL credentials that existed would have been automatically converted to use credential manager. These credentials could be tied to any of these: SQL Server, Azure SQL Database, Azure SQL Database Managed Instance, and Amazon RDS for SQL Server.

Can they be deleted? When we try we can’t. Since I have master role it needs to be associated with something. Any idea how I can find that?

Hello, I’m having the same issue and we’ve been asked to change service accounts to more secure ones. Is there a way to delete them?
I have to admit, I’m not happy with this, because we had a service account that was used for both some windows and sql stuff , now since it exists as windows, I cannot create an Sql entry with the same name,
Did you get an answer from someone or do we need to open a ticket?
thx

Correct this is function to allow better management of user credentials.
https://documentation.commvault.com/2022e/expert/101991_configurations_for_credential_manager.html
Info on deleting is located here:
-
If a credential entity is active in your Commvault environment, you cannot delete it.
-
Only the owner of an account can perform this procedure.
If you need to change a credential owner, see Changing Ownership of a Credential in Credential Manager.

Thank you, but all that has already been done, still getting the error message about usage and/or no rights to do deletion….
I’ve decided to open a ticket
