NetBackup™ Web UI Administrator's Guide

If a user doesn't have the correct permissions or access in the NetBackup web UI

Note that only administrators and root users automatically have full access to the web UI. Other users must be configured in RBAC to have access and permissions for the web UI.

See Configuring RBAC.

If a user does not have the correct permissions or cannot access the workload assets that they should have access to, do the following:

  • Verify that the user's credentials match the username (or the username and the domain name) that is specified in the user's role.

  • Review the roles for the user in Security > RBAC. You may need to change the role permissions. However, be aware that those kinds of changes also affect any other users that belong to those roles.

  • Any user account changes with the identity provider are not synchronized with the user's roles. If a user account changes with the identity provider, the user may not have the correct permissions or access. The NetBackup security administrator must edit each role for the user to remove the existing user account and re-add the new account.

  • Changes to a user's roles are not immediately reflected in the web UI. A user with an active session must sign out and sign in again before any changes take effect.
