You might need to run SQL Server as another account that matches an account with priveleges to that destination. Troubles

I am trying to backup our database from the main server to a test server. But everytime I tried to do so, the error: Device error or device offline sql server appears. When I tried accessing the destination from the main server using the Run command, I am allowed to access the said location (e.g. \\test_server\e$\backup). What should I do then? What do I need to check for the backup to be successful? Please help me out. Thanks.

Does the SQL Server services (MSSQLServer and SQLServerAgent) run as domain accounts? Do those accounts have permission to access the destination?-SQLBill Post #150924 magasvsmagasvs Posted Tuesday, December 14, 2004 10:13 AM Ten Centuries Group: General Forum Members Last Login: Sunday, June 19, 2016 3:32 PM Points: 1,271, Visits: 752 The best way is to backup to a local disk and then copy or move backup to the network share (as the second step of the job, for example).

However Microsoft left a hole in things to accomplish just that (if you have faith in the throughput and stability of your network).First:exec sp_addumpdevice 'disk','model_dump_device', '\\test_server\e$\backup\model.bak', '2'Second:backup database model to model_dump_deviceThis assumes that all the required permissions/authorities exist between the 2 servers and the account executing the actual command. In this example, since there is an administrative share, the user executing the command must have 'local administrator' rights on the target machine.
