Your excellent sig has inspired me. :-)
I'm guessing you were setting up the NetBackup Access Control ("NBAC") stuff?
and/or the Authorization options?
or perhaps vopied? (that last one is rarer than hen's teeth, so I'm
guessing not...)
Just off the cuff, I think you'll be "back to normal" if you just do
the following:
1. log in to your master server as root
2. stop the NetBackup daemons with "netbackup stop" or "bp.kill_all"
3. cd /usr/openv/var/authorize.txt; mv authorize.txt bad-authorize.txt
4. vi /usr/openv/netbackup/bp.conf and change any USE_VXSS values to
"PROHIBITED"
(and my hunch is that you could probably get away with just doing #4...)
Assuming you can now access NBU again, you can take your time figuring
out what went wrong! ;-)
Here's good reference for the rather-delicate configuration of
NetBackup Access Control:
