Deactivate or activate a credential rule
After you create a credential rule, you can deactivate the rule temporarily or make a rule active again. When a rule is deactivated, NetBackup does not automatically register any instances that meet the rule criteria.
Deactivate a credential rule
To deactivate a credential rule
- Select the Credential rules tab.
- Locate and select the credential rule.
- Select Deactivate.
Activate a credential rule
To activate a credential rule
- Select the Credential rules tab.
- Locate and select the credential rule.
- Select Activate > Activate.
Any unregistered instances that match the rule criteria are automatically registered. Any instances that are discovered after you activate the rule are automatically registered. The credential rule is not applied to any instances that are already registered.
If you have the necessary RBAC permissions, you can view the instances that were registered in the audit messages. (Go to Security > Security events. Then select the Audit events tab.)
