How to make a backup plan use the agent's credentials
Before importing or deploying the export file, delete the value of the required <login> tag. Then
the imported or deployed plan will use credentials of the agent service.
Example
To make the backup plan run under the agent's credentials, find the <login> tag in the
<plan><options><common_parameters> section. The tag looks like follows:
<login>
Administrator
</login>
<password encrypted="true">
XXXYYYZZZ888

<login>
</login>
<password encrypted="true">

</password>
