NDMP Unable to logon to auditor, check account and password are valid (4044984)

When backing up multiple volumes, the plug-in uses the “default” user account to run child jobs. If you assign a new password to this user account, you must also update the account details in the plug-in. Otherwise, the backup jobs that include multiple volumes report an error (“unable to log in to auditor, check account and password are valid”) and fail.

To configure password for the “default” user account:

1 Start the Backup Job Wizard, and click Create New next to the Selections list.

2 Open the NetVault Backup Server, and then open NDMP Client.

3 Select the filer, and in the Actions list, click Set Account.

4 In the NetVault Account dialogue box, provide the following information:

• Account: Type “default”, which is the user account used to run the sub-jobs.
• New Password: Select the New Password check box, and specify the password set for the “default” account.

5 To save the information, click OK
