Veritas NetBackup™ Virtual Appliance Documentation

Auditing NetBackup administrator accounts

NetBackup Virtual Appliance administrators can monitor the activity of each NetBackup administrator account. That means a NetBackup Virtual Appliance administrator can monitor the NetBackup commands that a NetBackup administrator executes. To audit that activity from the NetBackup Virtual Appliance Shell Menu, the NetBackup Virtual Appliance administrator can run the following command.

Main > Support > Logs > Browse > cd OS > less messages.

If you run that command, an output similar to the following is shown. The following example shows the NetBackup administrator, nbadmin, executed a bpps command on an appliance named, nbappliance.

Aug 24 23:10:28 nbappliance sudo:   nbadmin : TTY=pts/1 ; 
PWD=/home/nbusers ; USER=root ; COMMAND=/usr/openv/netbackup/bin/bpps
