VeeamON 2024 - Use Code "COMMUNITY10" for 10% Off!
I have seen that the service runs as a local system. Does this eliminate the need to enter guest OS credentials into the backup job? Because it’s a pain to store a domain admin on a backup server to backup the domain controllers. It would be great if Veeam uses the service user for this and no longer needs the guest credentials.

You still need guest credentials to use for Application Aware processing. This just helps with the backup process and having to spin up the agent each job run, now it uses the persistent agent. Do you know why? Application Aware processing aka VSS Writer can be started by the system account as well. For example, Quest's backup solution use this way. It would make the IT environment so much more secure.
