The preferred method of adding an 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 selected user before renaming to AD user.
When you add an AD user to the NetVault Backup server, NetVault Backup automatically fetches the respective user information from AD and populates it in the NetVault Backup user details. If NetVault Backup server is configured in secure mode, then AD user can be added in NetVault Backup server if its group is already added in user groups. When you manually add users, the privileges defined for the AD group to which the user belongs are automatically assigned. If the user has an existing local NetVault Backup account, the privileges defined for that account are taken into consideration by NetVault Backup before redefining the local user as an AD user. For more information on adding, updating, and deleting user accounts, see Creating a local user account, Modifying local user account, and Deleting local user account.However, it is not recommended for MSP and tenant administrator to add and modify users using Add User option.

A local NetVault Backup Administrator or an AD NetVault Backup user with administrative privileges can remove an AD user from NetVault Backup. This does not affect the user’s account in Active Directory; it only removes the user from the NetVault Database. Whereas, MSP administrator is not permitted to delete any tenant user, the tenant administrator can only delete tenant user/s.
