Administrating Access to NetBackup

Access to NetBackup can be controlled by defining user groups and granting explicit permissions to these groups. Configuring user groups and assigning permissions is done using Access Management in the NetBackup Administration Console.

This chapter discusses how to set up and manage access to NetBackup. It contains the following topics:

• NetBackup Access Management Components
• Installation Overview
• Installing and Configuring Access Control for Master Servers
• Installing and Configuring Access Control for Media Servers
• Installing and Configuring Access Control for Clients
• Installing the Authentication Service Root Broker (Root + AB)
• Installing the Authorization Server
• Access Management Troubleshooting Guidelines
• Using the Access Management Utility
• Determining Who Can Access NetBackup

  Note    Access Management and Enhanced Authentication and Authorization are independent methods of Access Control. Access Management is the newest and will be the preferred method in future NetBackup releases. If both Access Management and Enhanced Authorization and Authentication are configured, Access Management takes precedence.
