Ownership: Who Will Be Able to Restore?

Who Is a Backup A user who starts an interactive backup is the session owner. If a user Session Owner? starts an existing backup specification without modifying it, the backup

session is not considered interactive.

If a modified backup specification is started by a user, the user is the owner unless the following conditions apply:

•The user has the Switch Session Ownership user right.

•The backup session owner is explicitly defined in the backup specification, where the username, group or domain name, and the system name are specified. In that case, the backup session owner is the user specified in the backup specification.

If a backup is scheduled on a UNIX Cell Manager, the session owner is root:sys, unless the above conditions apply.

If a backup is scheduled on a Windows Cell Manager, the session owner is the user specified at installation time, unless the above conditions apply.

Who Can Restore The following users can restore a private object: a Private Object?

•Members of the Admin and Operator user group.

•The backup session owner who has the Start Restore user right. Other user rights may be required, such as Restore to Another Client.

•Users who have the See Private Objects user right.

Why Change the Sometimes, you may want to change the backup owner. For example, if Backup Owner? the administrator configures and schedules a backup specification,

operators are allowed to run it, but they cannot modify or save it. If the Private backup option is set for all objects, the operators are not able to restore anything, but can still manage backups and restart failed sessions.
