Veritas NetBackup™ OpsCenter Administrator's Guide

Exporting authentication settings

Export OpsCenterUsers(vx) users and certificates using the atutil utility.

Refer to the following procedures to export the authentication settings from the earlier OpsCenter versions:

On Windows, to export the authentication settings

  1. Logon to the remote AT host.
  2. Copy atutil.exe from the DVD to the local machine (that is the remote AT host).

    DVD location for atutil on Windows

    OpsCenter_version_Win/bin/atutil

  3. Run the following commands from the command prompt:
    • INSTALL_PATH\OpsCenter\server\authbroker>set EAT_DATA_DIR=INSTALL_PATH\OpsCenter\server\authbroker\data

      INSTALL_PATH is the location where you have installed OpsCenter.

    • local_atutil_location\atutil.exe export -t ab -z "INSTALL_PATH\Symantec\OpsCenter\server\authbroker\data" -f filename.xml -p password

      For Example: D:\Program Files\Symantec\OpsCenter\server\authbroker\bin>atutil export -t ab -z "D:\Program Files\Symantec\OpsCenter\server\authbroker\data" -f C:\Temp\test.xml -p Veritas1

On Unix, to export the authentication settings

  1. Logon to the remote AT host.
  2. Copy atutil from the DVD to the local machine (that is the remote AT host).

    DVD location for atutil on UNIX

    OpsCenter_version_Unix/bin/atutil

  3. Run the following command from the command prompt:

    local_atutil_location/atutil export -f filename.xml -p password -b

    For example: atutil export -f /temp/userdata.xml -p pass -b

    Note:

    On RHEL platform, run the following command:

    /opt/SYMCOpsCenterServer/authbroker/bin/atutil export -p password -f /tmp/at.xml -b -z /opt/SYMCOpsCenterServer/authbroker/data/
