Configuring Users and User Groups

Predefined Data Protector User Groups

The user rights you have set on the Cell Manager determine the availability of the Data Protector Cell Manager GUI or GUI contexts to the computer from which you connect to the Cell Manager. For example, if you have only the Start Restore user right set, then only the Restore context is available when you install the User Interface component.

After the initial installation, all default user groups are empty except for the Admin group. Data Protector adds the following users to the Admin group:

root:sys on HP-UX or Solaris

The Cell Manager account as typed in during setup on Windows

The java user, which enables Web Reporting

You do not have to add any other users if you do all the tasks as one of these users. Default user groups have been chosen so that the product can be operated smoothly and they should reflect the average configuration. They should be modified only if there is a good reason. Typically the operator group will be modified.

IMPORTANT

Admin capabilities are very powerful. A member of the Data Protector

 

Admin user group has system administrator capabilities for the whole

 

cell.
