Hi All,
I sincerely hope this question wasn’t raised recently;
I am quite busy these days and didn’t follow all the messages from this
mailing list, and don’t remember seeing it.
There are some new people that will take care of media
management at one of my sites. I am running Veritas Netbackup 5 on a win2k
server. Does the new user need to be a local administrator? I tried some other
groups but it doesn’t work. I don’t like to provide admin
privileges unless it’s really necessary. When they start the admin
console a message pops up saying that the user doesn’t have the required
privileges. Then the console opens, empty.
The error message (quite generic):
Unable to connect to the selected media host “xx”.
- Make sure the user “user”
has privileges on the host.
- Maker sure the localhost is
listed in the server list of destination host “xx”.
- Make sure there is a valid
network connection.
- Check authentication.
- Make sure all services are
running on the host.
So basically I will need to allow some people to change the
media, they will use the admin console to run some reports, and run an inventory
after removing full / inserting clear tapes. This is user issue, wiyh my admin
account I can run the same console from same machine. The machine I am running the
console from is the same server “xx”.
Thanks,
Endre
