The error you are seeing:
was raised because SQL Backup is attempting to access the database to check if you have rights to back up that database. You can disable that check altogether, by creating a DWORD registry entry, SkipChecks, with the value 1. This entry needs to be created in the
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Red Gate\SQL Backup\BackupSettingsGlobal\<instance name>
registry node. However, this means that all users with permission to run the sqlbackup extended stored procedure will be able to back up and restore any database on that instance.
This workaround isn't perfect in that SQL Backup will still try to access the database to get its size but fail with the following warning:
but at least you're able to back up the secondary replica database.
