Veritas NetBackup™ Cloud Administrator's Guide

Cloud configuration may fail if NetBackup Access Control is enabled

If you attempt to configure a cloud storage server in an environment that uses NetBackup Access Control, you may receive an error message similar to the following:

Error creating Key Group and Keys cannot connect on socket

NetBackup generates this error message because the user does not have sufficient rights within NetBackup Access Control. The user account that configures the cloud storage server must be a member of the NBU_KMS Admin Group.

See the NetBackup Security and Encryption Guide for more information about NetBackup Access Control and account setup:
