Safe Mode in NetVault Backup

Restricting an application to a set of users

Microsoft Azure Active Directory (Azure AD) lets you restrict access to applications to specific sets of users or security groups. To view the procedure for enabling the app to enable user assignments, search the Microsoft Azure Active Directory documentation. If the user assignment requirement is set to Yes, then you must assign the Azure AD users to the application in the Azure portal before they can log in to NetVault.

To assign a user to NetVault Backup in the Azure portal:
1
Navigate to Enterprise applications.
2
Select NetVault as the application that you registered.
3
Under Users and groups, click Add user.
4
Select the appropriate user.
5
Click Assign.

Configuring Azure AD in NetVault Backup

To configure Azure AD in NetVault Backup:
1
Log in to the NetVault server as an administrator.
2
From the NetVault WebUI, and in the Navigation pane, click Change Settings.
3
On the NetVault Server Settings page, under User management, click Identity Provider.
4
In the Identity Provider window, enter the Application ID and Directory ID.
 
* 
NOTE: To retrieve the Directory ID for the application, see Azure AD Properties.
5
Click Apply.

Managing an Azure AD user

The following list identifies what various users can and cannot do within NetVault Backup as it pertains to Azure Active Directory (Azure AD):

•
When an Azure AD user logs in using Sign In with Azure AD, NetVault Backup authenticates the login against Azure Active Directory. This behavior lets an Azure AD user log in to NetVault Backup without needing a local NetVault Backup account.
•
If authentication succeeds and this is the first time that the user is logging in, NetVault Backup takes one of the following actions:
•
If a corresponding Azure AD group exists in NetVault Backup, then NetVault Backup adds the user and assigns the user the privileges, access levels, and notification settings that are defined for the corresponding Azure AD group.
•
If the user does not have a NetVault Backup account, NetVault Backup adds the user but excludes all privileges, access levels, and notification settings. When the local NetVault Backup administrator logs in, the administrator can view the Azure AD user entry and assign the applicable privileges.
•
NetVault Backup automatically fetches the respective user details from the domain controller and stores them locally in the NetVault Backup database. When in secure mode, NetVault Backup fetches the details from the domain controller and overwrites them in the NetVault Backup database on every successful login.
•
If authentication fails, NetVault Backup displays an error message and prevents the user from logging in.
•
All NetVault Backup administrators can view all local, AD, and Azure AD NetVault Backup users.
•
An Azure AD NetVault Backup user with administrative privileges can add authenticated Azure AD users; a local NetVault Backup administrator cannot.
•
An Azure AD NetVault Backup user with administrative privileges can rename an existing local NetVault Backup user to an authenticated Azure AD NetVault Backup user; a local NetVault Backup administrator cannot.
 
* 
NOTE: To maintain the integrity of the user’s Azure AD password, ensure that the password field remains empty.
•
After you add the Azure AD user in NetVault Backup, you cannot rename the user to any other user name.
•
No one can change the password of an Azure AD user or set the password to use the Password never expires option.
•
A local, AD, or Azure AD NetVault Backup user with administrative privileges can change user-based information that is accessed by using the Modify Details option as this information is stored in the NetVault Database. However, if the secure mode is enabled, the NetVault Backup administrator and other users are allowed to edit or change only E-mail 2 and E-mail 3 of an Azure AD NetVault Backup user.

The following procedures detail ways of managing a Microsoft Azure Active Directory (Azure AD) user account.

Adding an Azure AD user
•
Deleting an AD user

Adding an Azure AD user

As with Active Directory (AD), the preferred method of adding an Azure AD user is for the applicable user to log in and let NetVault Backup complete the authentication process. However, if you have the applicable privileges, at a minimum, you must have the Users — Administer user accounts privilege, you can manually add the user, where it will also consider the privileges defined to the selected user before renaming it to an Azure AD user.

When you add an Azure AD user to the NetVault Backup Server, NetVault Backup automatically fetches the respective user information from Azure AD and populates it in the NetVault Backup user details. When you add users manually, NetVault Backup automatically assigns the user the privileges that are defined for the Azure AD group to which the user belongs.

To add an Azure AD user account to NetVault Backup:
1
In the Navigation pane, click Users and Groups.
2
On the Manage User Accounts and User Groups page, click Add User.
3
Select the user on Manage User Accounts and User Groups page and click Modify Details.
4
Enter the Azure AD user name; for example, username@domain.com.
5
Click Apply.
