Remarks

Rights required to retrieve a backup

To retrieve a backup, the user or the group must have the rights to perform backups (hRightsBackup constant). These rights apply to the servers and to the databases. For example, to perform a full server backup, you must have the rights to perform backups at server level.
To find out whether these rights are granted to a user or to a group, use HInfoServerRights or HInfoDatabaseRights.
To modify the rights granted to a user or to a group of users, use HModifyServerRights or HModifyDatabaseRights.
