VxSS Component Distribution
The VxSS components can be distributed throughout a configuration, just as NetBackup can distribute master servers, media servers and clients.
Note
Although the Authentication broker and Authorization broker can technically be placed on any machine, VERITAS currently recommends that the root Authentication broker and Authorization broker be placed on the NetBackup master server. At a minimum, the root Authentication broker must reside on the master server.
For specific VxSS installation information, refer to the VERITAS Security Services Installation Guide, found on the VxSS installation CD.
