Re: [Veritas-bu] Odd Question - NBU BAR Utility

Dave
Its Windows mate - directly connected to the Server. Java plays no part in
this environment, with the exception of a Unix master Server but not related
to this netbackup environment.
 
I dont believe my account or the 2nd account was used to install Netbackup -
and thats why I find it all so puzzling.
 
All of the accounts have the same rights, permissions, ect - double checked
this. Mystery !
 
But I dont want to use Java here if I can help it.
 
Thanks anyhow :-)

Simon -  Are you using the Windows Admin Console or Java console?   The java
requires a username/password - the windows console does not.  
 
The auth.conf file would only exist if using the Java console. 
 
If using the windows admin console and seeing different behavior for
different accounts, it may be due to which account you installed NetBackup
using.  If you installed NetBackup on this master server while logged in as
yourself and your account doesn't have domain admin rights - then your
specific account would be the only one to have administrative authority on
the machine.   If your account does have domain admin rights - then any
account with those rights should be able to administer NetBackup.  
 
A work around may be to just setup the java console - then you can give them
rights in the auth.conf file.  Or you could install the windows admin
console on his/her local machine and add that machine name to the servers
list on the master server...

Simon,
  You might want to check to see if you have your domain account configured
properly in the auth.conf file.

Hope that helps.

Most likely the reason that your admin was unable to chose a destination
client was because he was logged into the client vs. a master or media
server.  

By default NetBackup will not allow clients to restore information to other
clients (that's a security measure - you wouldn't want just anyone to have
the ability to restore anything anywhere).

If an admin logs into a client system, unless the client is specified a in
the server list, it will never be authorized to run restores of anything but
it's own

Hi Paul
By rights, I mean 2 domain Administrator accounts - my domain Admin
account and someone elses Domain Admin account.

There is no auth.conf file in use, and I do not recall ever setting one

In fact, had a search for the file and could not even find it !

Now that will limit users to the ability of restoring other machines data to 
itself, but will not allow that machine to restore to anything but the local 
client.

Short story - if you want your admin to have rights to restore anywhere - have 
him log into an administrative account on the master server.

The only other reason I have ever seen that tab grayed out was if there was a 
reverse hostname lookup issue to the machine starting the interface.

He was logged into the Master Server. The attempt was to restore
a single file to a client. The restore was to the same client, but it
was the issue over the 3rd TAB that I had a query over.
 
2 Accounts can see this tab, one being mine. If someone else
logs on with the same rights as myself, perform the same process, they
do not see the 3rd TAB that states "Destination Clients".
 
Its not the end of the world, but it would be nice to know why I
can see it, another account can see it, yet no one else can.
 
And the account used was a Domain Admin account!
 
As a test, I logged into the machine with my account, launch the
Admin Console, chose Backup, Archive, Restore, selected FILE / Specify
NetBackup Machines & Policy Type and a small Window appears. The 3 tabs
I see are "Servers", "Source Clients / Policy Type" and finally
"Destination Clients".
 
Now, logging into the same master server, with a Domain Admin
account, perform the same steps as above, I get the same small window,
however the difference being is the present of just 2 tabs labelled
"Servers" and "Clients / Policy Type". Thats it !
 
So ... I am just trying to work out why my 2 accounts show a
difference. and I cannot quite understand why !

Most likely the reason that your admin was unable to chose a destination
client was because he was logged into the client vs. a master or media
server.  

By default NetBackup will not allow clients to restore information to other
clients (that's a security measure - you wouldn't want just anyone to have
the ability to restore anything anywhere).

If an admin logs into a client system, unless the client is specified a in
the server list, it will never be authorized to run restores of anything but
it's own data.  

There is a section in the Admin Guide about setting up exceptions for this
rule.  On Unix the file is "No.restrictions" - I think it has a similar
name/fuction on windows (just check the index of the windows guide for that
file name...)

Now that will limit users to the ability of restoring other machines data to
itself, but will not allow that machine to restore to anything but the local
client.

Short story - if you want your admin to have rights to restore anywhere -
have him log into an administrative account on the master server.

The only other reason I have ever seen that tab grayed out was if there was
a reverse hostname lookup issue to the machine starting the interface.

Hi All
Many thanks. The problem is this ... The administrator was logged onto the
Master Server directly, launched the Backup, Archive & Restore tool. When he
went to specify netbackup machines / policy type the box did not show the
3rd tab.

Now, as the Administrator, I would have expected to have seen that.

Simon,

As the old man, bob944, is saying the results your coworker is seeing is
expected.  A client and media server, by default, cannot restore data except
to themselves (clients) or the machines they backup (media servers).  Only
the Master server can restore to all machines; therefore, the only machines
that will have the three tabs are the servers (Master and Media)

Guys
Win2k3 environment with Master and 2 SAN
 
I have a dedicated account used for monitoring / checking backups.
 
Another team member needed to perform a restore, which worked great, but
mentioned a small issue with the BAR tool.
 
Using his own account, when accessing the BAR tool, then choosing, FILE,
Specify NetBackup Machines & Policy Types there was only 2 tabs present in
the window. the 3rd tab (which shows Destination Clients) was not present !
 
I logged onto the system, and I can see the 3 tabs, but with his account, I
cannot.
 
But I cannot see where I need to configure this, so he can ! 
 
any ideas?? 
Thanks alot
