Recovering the NetBackup catalog when NetBackup Access Control is configured
If you have configured NetBackup Access Control (NBAC), the online, hot catalog backup automatically backs up your authentication information and authorization configuration information.
Both the Operate and Configure permission sets are required on the catalog object to successfully back up and recover NBAC authentication and authorization data.
Separate recovery procedures exist based on operating system, as follows:
Table: To recover the NetBackup catalog on UNIX when NetBackup Access Control is configured
Step | Task | Procedure |
---|---|---|
Step 1 | If recovering to a master server on which NBAC is configured and operational, disable NBAC (that is, set it to PROHIBITED mode). | See the NetBackup Security and Encryption Guide: |
Step 2 | Recover the NetBackup catalog from the online catalog backup using the Catalog Recovery Wizard or the bprecover command. | |
Step 3 | Configure NetBackup to use NBAC by setting it to AUTOMATIC or REQUIRED as per the security level desired. | See the NetBackup Security and Encryption Guide: |
Step 4 | Restart NetBackup. | /usr/openv/netbackup/bin/bp.kill_all /usr/openv/netbackup/bin/bp.start_all |
Table: To recover the NetBackup catalog on Windows when NetBackup Access Control is configured
Step | Task | Procedure |
---|---|---|
Step 1 | If recovering to a master server on which NBAC is configured and operational, disable NBAC (that is, set it to PROHIBITED mode). | See the NetBackup Security and Encryption Guide: |
Step 2 | Stop the NetBackup services. | install_path\Veritas\NetBackup\bin\bpdown.exe |
Step 3 | In Windows, change the startup type of the NetBackup Authentication Service and NetBackup Authorization Service to Disabled. | Instructions for configuring Microsoft Windows are beyond the scope of the NetBackup documentation. Refer to the appropriate Microsoft documentation. |
Step 4 | Start the NetBackup services. | install_path\Veritas\NetBackup\bin\bpup.exe |
Step 5 | Recover the NetBackup catalog from the online catalog backup using the Catalog Recovery Wizard or the bprecover command. | |
Step 6 | In Windows, change the startup type of the NetBackup Authentication Service and NetBackup Authorization Service to Automatic. | Instructions for configuring Microsoft Windows are beyond the scope of the NetBackup documentation. Refer to the appropriate Microsoft documentation. |
Step 7 | Configure NetBackup to use NBAC. | The procedure depends on the environment, as follows:
See the NetBackup Security and Encryption Guide: |
Step 8 | Restart NetBackup. | install_path\Veritas\NetBackup\bin\bpdown.exe install_path\Veritas\NetBackup\bin\bpup.exe |
