Using Groups

The following diagram illustrates how two groups may be configured on a single Administrator to isolate clients
and servers from two separate environments. For security reasons clients from the Development group will not
have access to backups performed by clients of the Production group and vice-versa.

Clients may ONLY belong to one group but a server can be shared among multiple
groups. In this example SharedServer
is a server configured under group
“Production” but allows access to “Development” group clients.

SharedServer is a server configured by the Production group to allow access from the Development
group. This means clients from either group may backup to it. However, only the Production group may
make changes to it.

ProdServer is a server configured to only allow clients from the Production Group access.

With the above configuration, the SBAdmin will configure two groups: Development and Production. After
switching to group Production, the clients and servers may be added and configured. See

Configure Clients

and

Configure Servers

for more details. The following screen shows the Administrator interface configured

under group Production:
