>From what I saw testing, I'd like to have NOM, but I won't install it on
any media or master server.  I don't know that there is an issue with
having Auth Broker + Root Broker on the same box.  As for security
concerns, the way I tested it, it had no privileges outside of the NBU +
VxSS environment that I could see.  But all the java of NOM
significantly slowed a Win 2K box, and it was also a flaky service.  But
that could have been the age of the box, I realize.  But, to be on the
safe side, I'm waiting to check it on another box.

Subject: Re: [Veritas-bu] NetBackup and VXSS

So far I havent seen even single positive reply, I have gotten few very
negatives.

Can someone from Veritas shed some light? My questions are more from the
implementation of VxSS in a NetBackup 6.0MP1 environment:

1. Is it recommeneded to install Authentication Broker
+ Roor Broker on same machine? Even on master server
or on the NOM server? Or a seprate dedicated machine for Root Broker and
another one for Authentication Broker.
2. What are the requirements as for as domain names go, do the Root
Broker and/or authentication brokers have to be in a domain, or have to
be in a top level domain etc.

TIA
