Hi Matthias, > the database service is running under the local system > account, also the xserver service.
And you can make backups with that database to a user created share on another machine? So far I thought it is needed, that the database service (SAPDB:<dbname>) logs on under a normal user account who has permissions to use the share in question on the other machine. > I (domain-administrator) start a command shell.

But as long, as you start dbmcli without the -s switch it will be just a front-end for a DBMServer started by the xserver and the backup files themselves are always(!) created and written by the database kernel (the database service). > It seems like, that the user in "dbmcli -d DATA_1 -u > user,password" tries to connect to the other server. That user is just your authorization for administrating the database. It does not correspond to any OS user. Also the database kernel does not directly connect to your second server, it just creates a files with a special name and the OS does take care of the rest (and gives a permission error in your case).
