Mapping Details dialog box

Use the Mapping Details dialog box to approve or reject the pending host ID-to-host name mappings.

On the Security Management > Host Management > Mappings for Approval tab, right-click the host ID-to-host name mapping that you want to approve or reject, and click Mapping Details to open the dialog box.

See Add or Remove Host Mappings dialog box.

See Approving host ID to host name mappings.

See Rejecting host ID to host name mappings.

See Mappings for Approval tab.

The following options are available on the dialog box:

Host

Displays name of the host for which you want to approve or reject the mapping.

Mapped Host Names / IP Addresses

Lists the existing mappings that are associated with the host.

NetBackup Host ID

Displays the host ID of the host.

Conflict in mapping - Shared with hosts

Note:

This information is displayed if the selected mapping is already associated with other hosts.

This table lists information of all hosts across which the selected mapping is shared.

For example, in a cluster set up, multiple host IDs share the same virtual name.

If a mapping is added for a host ID and if the same mapping is discovered against a different host ID, it is listed on the Mappings for Approval tab. You can either approve this mapping or reject it using the Mapping Details dialog box.

  • Host - Displays the name of the host with which the selected mapping is already associated.

  • NetBackup Host ID - Displays host ID of the host with which the selected mapping is already associated.

See About shared or cluster mapping scenarios.

Reject
