Active Directory Integration Manual

A subgroup in BackupAgent Server can also be fully private label. A reseller can then fully
customize these private label settings for the Management Console as would be the case when
BackupAgent Server is running in a stand-alone environment.
Users that are part of the OU and have a group membership for a backup plan can be
monitored by the administrator of the OU from the BackupAgent Server Management Console.
3. Technical implementation
This chapter will explain the working of the Active Directory integration module as per version
4.3.1 of the BackupAgent server software.
3.1 Creating users
This section describes how to create users in Active Directory for integration with BackupAgent.
These can be trial users or users belonging to a certain group.
3.1.1 Trial users
Trial users can be created in the Organizational Unit called ‘Users’.
Note: Any user will obtain a trial account if it exists in Active Directory unless the option to
provision trial accounts have been switched off in the BackupAgent server settings.
First you need to create a User logon name for this user.
