Configuring Users and User Groups

Data Protector User Rights

Data Protector User Rights

Data Protector users have the user rights of the user group they belong to. For example, all members of the Admin user group have the rights of the Data Protector Admin user group.

When configuring a Windows NT or a Windows 2000 user in a Data Protector cell running the Cell Manager on the HP-UX or Solaris platform, the user has to be configured with the Domain Name or the wildcard group "*".

The Data Protector user rights are described below:

Clients configuration

Allows the user to install and update

 

Data Protector software on client

 

systems.

User configuration

Allows the user to add, delete, and

 

modify users and user groups. Note

 

that this is a powerful right.

Device configuration

Allows the user to create, configure,

 

delete, modify, and rename devices.

 

This includes the ability to add a

 

mount request script to a logical

 

device.

Media configuration

Allows the user to manage media

 

pools and the media in the pools and

 

to work with media in libraries,

 

including ejecting and entering

 

media.

Reporting and notifications

Allows the user to create Data

 

Protector reports. To use Web

 

Reporting you also need a Java user

 

under the Applet domain in the

 

Admin user group.

Start backup

Allows users to back up their own

 

data as well as monitor and abort

 

their own sessions.
