You may need to update Veritas Enterprise Administrator so that users other than root
can access features.
You may want to add users to the VEA Authorization Database (AZDB) to allow access to the interface to users other than root
. You also have the option to give database administrators root
privileges.
To add users other than root to the Veritas Enterprise Administrator AZDB
The output should look similar to the following:
VRTSorgui-common-5.0.00.A10-SLES9
root
privileges to the database administrator, use the vxdbedusr
command as follows.
# /opt/VRTS/bin/vxdbedusr -a
{user
| group
} [-A] [-f] -n
\ u
ser_name
[-h
fully_qualified_host_name -d domain_name
\
-a user
adds a user to the registry
-A
grants the user root access
-f
allows the user to be a user other than the /opt/VRTSdbed
owner.
-n
indicates the name of the user.
-h
specifies a fully qualified host name on which you want to add a user.
-d
specifies the domain to which the user belongs.
-t
specifies the type of domain to which the user belongs. Valid values are nis
, nisplus
, Idap
, unixpwd
, and gssapi
.
For example, to add a database administrator with the name "oracle" as a user with root
privileges, enter the following:
root
privileges, use the vxdbedusr
command as follows.
# /opt/VRTS/bin/vxdbedusr -a user
-n
user_name
where -a
adds a user to the registry.
For example, to add "oracle" as a user, enter the following:
# /opt/VRTS/bin/vxdbedusr -a user -n oracle
# /opt/VRTS/bin/vxdbedusr -a group -n
group_name
where -a
adds the user group to the registry.
For example, to add "dba" as a group, enter the following:
# /opt/VRTS/bin/vxdbedusr -a group -n dba
You may need to restrict access to the VEA Authorization Database (AZDB). You can remove users or user groups from the registry if they have been previously added.
Note
You cannot remove root
from the AZDB.
To remove users other than root from the Veritas Enterprise Administrator Service console registry
The output should look similar to the following:
VRTSorgui-common-5.0.00.A10-SLES9
# /opt/VRTS/bin/vxdbedusr -r
{user
| group
} \
where -r
removes a user or user group from the registry.
For example, to remove the user "oracle," enter the following:
# /opt/VRTS/bin/vxdbedusr -r user -n oracle
