Informations supplémentaires
If backup fails, confirm that the registry key exist in the DC in which the agent was manually installed: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Quest\Recovery Manager for Active Directory If the above registry key does not exist, then try recreating it by copying it from a DC with a known good working backup agent.
