Re: What type of Server Roles to assign for Backup and Recovery



Hi Tom,

Using the db_backupoperator and the db_creator roles for a sql server
login.Somehow when u try to perform a recovery from a device than it requires
a NTFS permission on the Directory of where the backup file is
located...somehow to overcome all this I had to assign a sysadmin.....Is any
workaround solution for this




Thanks,
Aishu

Any member of db_backupoperator can perform backups on the same database.
Members of the fixed server role, dbcreator, can create databases. Just add
and remove logins from these roles as required.

Hi there,

I have a question , what is the best practice to create a login to perform
backup and recovery, Can I just have DB role as DB_backupoperator or I have
to assign a sysadmin role to the user ( in SQL authentication/
windows).Coming up with a secure policy , so that when users go out from the
company it wont affect the practice.

Thanks,
Aishu
