NetBackup™ Security and Encryption Guide

Disable web UI access for operating system (OS) administrators

By default, an OS administrator (user or group member) has access to the NetBackup web UI and does not need to be a member of an RBAC role.

If you do not want an OS administrator to automatically have this access, you can disable it. An OS administrator must then have the RBAC Administrator role to be able to access the web UI.

To disable web UI access control for the OS administrators

  1. Sign in to the web UI.
  2. On the left, select Security > RBAC.
  3. On the top right, click Role-based access control settings.
  4. Turn off Web UI access for Operating System Administrator.
