Step 4. Specify Credentials

At the Credentials step of the wizard, click Add and specify credentials of the user account for connecting to the server. For details on adding credentials records, see section Credentials Manager of Veeam ONE Monitoring Guide.

The provided credentials will be used to connect the backup server and all managed servers in the backup infrastructure:

Veeam Backup & Replication servers (if you connect Veeam Backup Enterprise Manager)
Backup proxies
Backup repositories
WAN Accelerators
Tape servers
Cloud Gateways

If the provided user account does not have required permissions on a managed backup infrastructure server, Veeam ONE will fail to connect to this server. In this case, you must provide custom connection credentials manually. For details, see Connection to Veeam Backup & Replication Servers.
