Unable to connect to server: User 'administrator AT machine1.example DOT com' is not in the 'administrator' list of NetWorker server 'machine2'

- Log in to the x86 Solaris machine (machine2).

- Become root, or use RBAC or sudo to execute "nsradmin" with superuser
 privs.

- At the nsradmin prompt, type

    visual

- Use the arrow keys so that "Select" is highlighted, and press Enter

- Use the arrow keys so that "NSR usergroup" is highlighted, and press
 Enter

- It will likely display the group with a "name: Administrators" first,
 if not highlight "Next" and hit Enter until that user group is the one
 it's displaying.

- arrow over to "Edit" and hit Enter

- use the arrow key to scroll down to the last line in the
 "users:" field.

- change the ; at the end of that line to a , and then add
  "user=administrator,host=machine2.example.com";

That should be

    "user=administrator,host=machine1.example.com";

EMC told me this can also be done from the command line on machine2 with:

nsraddadmin -u "user=administrator, host=machine1"

Sure enough I can now access the new server from NMC.
