I was testing calling Netbackup schedules via the bpbackup.exe tool. I noticed that on a system with the agent installed I could call a scheduled assigned to that system from:The local SYSTEM accountAny admin user on the system (Domain or local user)...

Currently using EV 12.1 to vault our EX2016 mailboxes. We are moving to O365 and need to re-hydrate the mailboxes before the move. Is there a method to estimate the size of the mailbox in EX2016 post re-hydration ?

I'm deploying the NB agent v8 and v9 to RHEL 7.7 and 7.9. I'm wondering what priviledge it requires to run on the target RHEL server. Our backup team are saying it needs to run as the root user but our security team would naturally prefer that not be...

Thanks for the info. We only need to backup some files that a non-root user has access to so hence security have asked why we need root. If that's the requirement then so be it.

Thanks for the reply. Would sudo not suffice though? We have other agents that require root priviledge but do not actually run under the root user.

Maybe I'm over complicating my attempts to understand it. SO the NFS client is unaware of protection points etc. and simply treats it as an NFS share of which it has full control over the data therein. IN the background though Netbackup can keep that...

So can the NFS client that created the backup to the universal share not delete that backup i.e. once they have created it is it truly protected?
