About authorizing nonroot users for specific applications

Nonroot users can be authorized for a subset of the NetBackup administrator applications.

To authorize users for a subset of the NetBackup administrator applications, use the following identifiers for the ADMIN keyword in the auth.conf file:

ALL	Indicates that the user has administrative privileges for all of the applications that are listed in this table.
AM	Activity Monitor
BMR	Bare Metal Restore
BPM	Backup Policy Management
BAR or JBP	Backup, Archive, and Restore
CAT	Catalog
DM	Device Monitor
HPD	Host Properties
MM	Media Management
REP	Reports
SM	Security Management
SUM	Storage Unit Management
VLT	Vault Management

For example, to give a user (user1) access only to the Device Monitor and Activity Monitor, add the following entry to the auth.conf file:

user1 ADMIN=DM+AM
