Removing Service Accounts

Veeam Backup for Microsoft Azure allows you to permanently remove a service account from the configuration database if you no longer need it:

  1. Switch to the Configuration page.
  2. Navigate to Accounts > Service Accounts.
  3. Select the service account and click Remove.

Note

You cannot remove a service account that is used by any backup policy, or if Veeam Backup for Microsoft Azure still uses this account to access any of the existing backup repositories. Disable and remove all the related backup policies, remove all the related backup repositories — and then try removing the account again.
