Pierryves,

I just went through a similar situation and coincidently enough, got my answer 
from this list server. For UNIX all I did was add a line in the bpstart or 
bpstop script to execute a su command as a specific user. It looks like this

/usr/bin/su - user -c command_string

It works fine and I've had no problems with it. I can't speak for NT but would 
be interested to hear any replies on this subject. If you review the archives 
of this list server for December and January, you will probably see all the 
back and forth chat that I initiated to learn how to do this on a UNIX platform.

Good Luck

Regards,
Dennis Dwyer

Hi everybody,

we run NetBackup 3.4 DataCenter under NT. We backup NT and Unix
clients. Under Unix clients, we need to execute various commands,
such as data exports or database shutdown.
These commands need to be be executed under specific users (root or
oracle, for example). But how to run bpstart/end_scripts under a specified
user, if this is possible ?

Thanks for any answer !
