NetBackup™ Web UI Administrator's Guide

RBAC features

The NetBackup web user interface provides the ability to apply role-based access control in your NetBackup environment. Use RBAC to provide access for the users that do not currently have access to NetBackup. Or, for current NetBackup users with administrator access you can provide limited access and permissions, based on their role in your organization.

For information on access control and auditing information for root users and administrators, refer to the NetBackup Security and Encryption Guide.

Feature

Description

Roles allow users to perform specific tasks

Add users to one or more default RBAC roles or create custom roles to fit the role of your users. Add a user to the Administrator role to give full NetBackup permissions to that user.

See Default RBAC roles.

Users can access NetBackup areas and the features that fit their role

RBAC users can perform common tasks for their business role, but are restricted from accessing other NetBackup areas and features. RBAC also controls the assets that users can view or manage.

Auditing of RBAC events

NetBackup audits RBAC events.

DR ready

RBAC settings are protected with the NetBackup catalog.
