Deleting authorization tokens

Use the NetBackup Administration Console or the command line to delete specific authorization tokens. A token can be deleted even though it has not expired and the Maximum Uses Allowed count has not yet been exhausted.

To delete a token using the NetBackup Administration Console

  1. In the NetBackup Administration Console, expand Security Management > Certificate Management > Token Management.
  2. In the right pane, select the token to be deleted.
  3. Select Edit > Delete.
  4. Click Yes in the confirmation dialog box to delete the token.

To delete a token using the command line

  • Run the nbcertcmd -deleteToken command (with additional parameters).

    For information about the nbcertcmd command, see the NetBackup Commands Reference Guide.
