Using AD in an entirely Windows environment, VxSS should be fairly "easy" to setup and use.

Check out these articles:

http://seer.entsupport.symantec.com/docs/286797.htm (specific install instructions for Windows)
http://seer.entsupport.symantec.com/docs/281626.htm (specific for unix, but it has useful info)

http://www.symantec.com/business/theme.jsp?themeid=yellowbooks (Chapter 7 will be particularly useful to you, especially page 168 for adding media servers.)

[Veritas-bu] VxSS





Anyone using VxSS?  I have a totally Windows Environment running NBU 6.0 MP4…dedicated network, master / media servers are all in workgroups and clients are controlled via Host files residing on the Master / media servers.  My environment is shared between two separate groups (call it group X and group Y, with my group (X) managing the Infrastructure as well as the backups for the servers we manage.  My management is asking if there is a way to tighten up security on the NBU environment.  Currently we have a generic ID set up on the Master / media servers to log into.  Group X has an ID and group Y  has their own ID, yet group Y can theoretically manage my policies and I theirs.   We are planning to migrate everything to an AD domain, however I don’t think that is going to be good enough of a security measure.  I am looking for ways to control who can do what.  Is there a way I can limit what group Y can do, like not have access to make any changes to my policies, my client lists, etc.  I was trying to read up on VxSS, but might as well be reading hieroglyphs.  Any ideas?
 
Thanks
Dan Cruice
