Configuring Users and User Groups

Data Protector User Rights

Start backup specification

Allows the user to perform a backup

 

using a backup specification, so that

 

the user can back up objects listed in

 

any backup specification and can also

 

modify existing backups.

Save backup specification

Allows the user to create, schedule,

 

modify, and save any backup

 

specification.

Back up as root

Allows the user to back up any object

 

with the rights of the root login on

 

UNIX clients. This user right is

 

effective only for UNIX clients. It is

 

required to run any backup on Novell

 

NetWare clients.

Switch session ownership

Allows the user to specify the owner

 

of the backup specification under

 

which the backup is started. By

 

default, the owner is the user who

 

started the backup. Scheduled

 

backups are started as root on a

 

UNIX Cell Manager and under the

 

Cell Manager account on Windows

 

systems. This user right is

 

appropriate if the Start backup

 

specification user right is enabled.

 

See “Ownership: Who Will Be Able to

 

Restore?” on page 235 for more

 

details.

Monitor

Allows the user to view information

 

about any active session in the cell

 

and to access the IDB to view past

 

sessions.

Abort

Allows the user to abort any active

 

session in the cell.

Mount request

Allows the user to respond to mount

 

requests for any active session in the

 

cell.
