For security reasons, you can restore databases to another server only in the following condition. The account you use to connect to Veeam Backup & Replication server must be the same account that performed the backup of the source system. If you want to use another account, you can assign the Veeam Backup Administrator or Veeam Restore Operator roles to the required account. For details on assigning Veeam Backup & Replication roles, see the Roles and Users section of the Veeam Backup & Replication User Guide.
