Description
All users on the system are provided access to all of the backup devices on the
system when SysBack is first installed. This is accomplished by providing a
permission record for a user called all. You might not want certain users to have
access to all devices and backup directories, so you can deny specific users access
or change the device or directory list that specific users are allowed to use. The
devices and directories specified when using this option determine the list of
backup options that users receive when they perform backups using SMIT, and
those devices or directories that other SysBack commands, executed at the
command line, are permitted to read or write to.
If you do not want all users on the system to have the same access, remove access
to user all, using the -r flag, before setting up access to specific users.
SysBack provides flexibility in assigning users access to devices, directories, and so
on. For instance, you can assign specific devices or directories to each user on the
system or assign a device to all users on the system except specific users. Refer to
“Adding or Changing Local User Device/Directory Access” on page 7-2 for details
and examples of user permissions.
Flags
-b “directory”
Specifies one or more directories, separated by spaces, to which the user can
perform regular backups. The user can back up to any subdirectory in the
directories provided here. When performing any SysBack backup, the user has
a disk image file backup option for each directory specified.
-d “user”
Specifies users, separated by spaces, that are to be explicitly denied access. If
you use this flag when you are adding or changing a permission record for all
users, all users except those specified will be permitted.
-l Lists current user permissions.
-f “device”
Specifies a list of tape drives or virtual devices, separated by spaces, to which
the user or users can perform backups. Only the devices entered here are
displayed on the SMIT menus when the user selects a backup.
