Jared,

 

That’s just the tip of the iceberg, that is a specific VXSS command and should work straight off the bat, wait till you start trying to use the standard NBU commands to pull of info from media  servers etc out there that are possibly running on different platforms.  i.e windows and unix use different authentication methods which vxss relies on therefore from the command logged in as userA on a unix box how do you pull info from a windows media server ?

 

 

There are certain bprsh commands that can incorporate your standard nbu commands however I still am not a fan at all.

 

Have Fun J

 

Dave

Actually just yesterday I tried using command line bpbnaz and got it working.  I will check out that link, but there really is a lack of good documentation for such a complicated product.

Kyle, if you need to administer NetBackup as a non-root user, VxSS is the right option.

The most authoritative document on installing and configuring VxSS is the recently released Symantec Product Authentication and Authorization Yellow Book. The book has separate chapters dealing with Windows and Linux/Unix use cases and multiple product deployment scenarios.

It can be downloaded from http://www.symantec.com/enterprise/theme.jsp?themeid=yellowbooks

Jared, there are ways to define custom permission sets. Contact the support team.
