About user accounts

The NetVault Backup MSP administrator provides privileges to user group, and the users associated with the group get those privileges. MSP administrator also assigns appropriate privileges, group memberships, and quota to the tenant accounts based on the functions the tenant users need to perform. You must also have an Active Directory (AD) environment, where you need to create AD users and must integrate with NetVault Backup Server, and manage user groups. For more information see, Integrating Active Directory with NetVault Backup.

 
* 
NOTE: NetVault Backup for Managed Service Provider does not support the creation of new local user accounts.

For example, For an MSP administrator, the AD administrator creates a separate unique group in AD, and then MSP administrator adds this group and provides privileges to users of this group to perform MSP administrators role and ensures to enable secure mode to avoid any unauthorized access to NetVault Backup Server. See, Using Secure Mode.

 
* 
IMPORTANT: It is mandatory to provide a secret password for the local administrator user in NetVault, to avoid any unauthorized access in NetVault Backup Server. You can also disable the local admin user from NetVault.

There are three types of user accounts in NetVault Backup for MSP:

•
MSP administrator: The administrator account for NetVault Backup for MSP.
•
Tenant administrator: The tenant administrator account for an organization.
•
Tenant user: The tenant users of an organization, who protect authorized clients using NetVault Backup.

About user and group privileges and presets

A privilege is a permission to perform a specific task in NetVault Backup.

To accomplish any task in NetVault Backup, MSP administrator must assign appropriate privileges to tenant administrator group and tenant user group. If the user group does not have the privileges, the request is denied. In NetVault Backup, the Auditor Daemon (nvavp) authorizes the user requests based on the privileges granted to the user or user groups. For information about the types of user and user group privileges in NetVault Backup, see User privileges.

A Preset is a set of user privileges. Presets facilitate the task of assigning user privileges. Instead of assigning the individual privileges to each user account, the administrator can assign a Preset. When a Preset is assigned to a user, the user gets all the permissions included in that set.

NetVault Backup includes several predefined Presets, which contain all the necessary privileges for specific user roles and user groups. The predefined Presets includes the following: MSP administrator, tenant administrator, and tenant user. For more information about the privileges included in these sets, see Predefined Presets.

The MSP administrator can also create user-defined presets for any additional user roles that are required in the backup environment. For more information, see Using Presets.
