you also may want to make the directory,

/usr/openv/netbackup/logs/user_ops with a chmod -R 777

Subject: Re: [Veritas-bu] Setting Up Java GUI for Non-root
Administration... What aHassle


Have tried tackling this from the OS end?
You could use SUDO to add the user into the NBU.
Just remember to set up the paths in the user profile.
This works great for us.
Regards,
Mark

desk folks that limits what they can do within NetBackup. I was able to
create a test userid several months ago and it is working but I am running
into a problem trying to create the real one. When I execute jbpSA I get the
userid and password box displayed and for some reason the password block is
not available for entry. On my test ID if I just hit enter, it goes on and
displays the Java GUI and all is well (I guess that's a different problem).
With the ID I'm trying to set up now, I hit the enter key and I get an error
message that says "Can't create Directory". It doesn't say which directory
not does the jbpSA log, a useless log by the way, give any insight. Anybody
ever seen this before. As I recall, when we set up the test user months ago,
we may have run into this same issue but by shear stroke of luck, figured
out which directory it was trying to create and went out and did it
manually. Three months!
