another group you may continue to Group(s) allowed to access this server . If this server is already defined,
continue with the next paragraph.
Adding a Server Configured in Another Group
When adding a server that is defined in another group, you may be presented with the following message.
“This server was previously configured from another group. Although you have been granted
access to define or un-define this server to your group, you will not be able to change the
settings.”
You will be able to define this server and run backup jobs to it. If your Admin System has access to the
server you will need to
switch groups in order to make changes to the server settings. If your Admin System
does not have access to this server you will need to contact the Administrator of the server to make any
changes to the server.
When adding a server that is defined in another group you may get the following message, where GroupID
is replaced with your actual group id.
“This system is currently defined as a server, but your group id GroupID is not allowed
access. Permission for your group must be granted from the controlling Admin System.”
In this case you will not be able to add this server. You must run the Admin System under the group which
owns (originally configured) the server, and then grant access to this new group. See
Switch groups for
changing groups using the Administrator and Sharing a Server Between Administrator Environments .
Group(s) allowed access to this server
In the first listbox, you must select one or more groups that will be allowed access to this server. Only
clients in the selected
groups will have permission to write backups to the server, and only clients within
these groups may be selected when configuring backup jobs for this server.
Note that the groups listed here by name are groups defined on this Administrator system. If Group IDs
appear in the list, they are currently defined
Remote Groups allowed access, but defined to other
Administrator systems.
Adding Access to a Remote Group
Any group defined by name to this Administrator interface is considered a local group. Since a server
defined to this admin system (and possibly one or more local groups) can also be made available to other
SBAdmin systems, you must define which groups on that admin system will also have access. Groups
defined on a SBAdmin system other than this one are considered remote groups.
Since this SBAdmin system does not know the names of the remote groups (and the names may conflict
with their own), the remote groups must be defined using their group IDs. A group ID is a 16-digit Hex
number and can be located using the
Configure !Groups option from the remote SBAdmin interface.
On the Administrator that currently has the server defined, select the option from
the Groups allowed access to this server field. The following window will be displayed.
