I am having a problem with Backup-SPFarm.
A little background. 1. My login does not have access to the Central Administration Console which may be the problem. 2. I was not involved at all with the installation or configuration of Sharepoint. I have just been tasked with backing up the Farm.
when I run Backup-SPFarm -Directory \\SBHG-SQLNET\spbu -BackupMethod full I get the error "Backup-SPFarm : You need to have Machine administrator priviliges to run this" But I am part of the My network login is part of the Administrators group when states "Administrators have complete and unrestricted access to the computer/domain".
Any help highly appreciated
