NetVault Plug-in for SnapVault Manager 11.4.5 - User Guide

Using SnapVault password utility

The SnapVault Password Utility svpassword allows you to set the NetVault Backup user account and password in the SnapVault Manager configuration file to enable communication between the Plug‑in for SnapVault Manager and NetVault Backup Server. This utility must be used if the password is changed for the “default” or “admin” user accounts.

The svpassword utility is located in the netvault/bin directory on the NetVault Backup Server on which the Plug‑in for SnapVault Manager is installed.

Syntax
svpassword <account> <old password> <new password>

The <old password> parameter can be omitted if no password was set for the user account.

For example, if the password for the “default” account has been changed to “test” in NetVault Backup, type the following command to set the password in the SnapVault Manager configuration file.

./svpassword default test
