NetBackup™ for Microsoft SQL Server Administrator's Guide

Create a custom role for a non-SQL Server administrator

A custom role can allow a non-SQL Server administrator to sign into the NetBackup web UI with limited access. Use this role if you do not want an administrator (who is not a SQL Server administrator) to have the Default Microsoft SQL Server Administrator role. With this custom role, this type of administrator can only view SQL Server jobs and does not have access to SQL Server assets or their information.

To create a custom role for a non-SQL Server administrator

  1. On the left, select Security > RBAC and click Add.
  2. Select Custom role and click Next.
  3. Provide a Role name and a description.

    For example, include a description that the role allows a non-SQL Server administrator to view SQL Server jobs.

  4. Under Permissions, select Assign.
  5. On the Assets tab, go to Microsoft SQL Server assets, then select View jobs.
  6. Select Assign.
  7. Under Workloads, select Assign.
  8. Select the option Apply permissions to all existing and future Microsoft SQL Server assets.
  9. Select Assign.
  10. Under Users, select Assign. Then add the users that you want to have this RBAC role.
  11. Select Assign.
  12. When you are done configuring the role, select Add role.
