Symantec Backup Exec

Backup Exec requires the following to back up Novell OES:

• Novell OES must have Service Pack 1 installed.

• Novell OES 2 must have the Target Service Agent for NDS (TSANDS) loaded.

  The TSANDS protects eDirectory on Novell Open Enterprise Server 2. By default, TSANDS is not loaded on Novell Open Enterprise Server 2. You must manually load TSANDS before eDirectory can appear as a resource that is available for backup. See your Novell documentation for information about how to load TSANDS.

• The Target Service Agents must be enabled for the following:

  • Novell eDirectory

  • Novell iFolder

  • Novell Group Wise

• A local UNIX user name that is the equivalent of the admin-level eDirectory user in the beoper group. Backup Exec does not support eDirectory users.

  See About the Backup Exec operators group for the Remote Agent for Linux or UNIX Servers.

• A Backup Exec logon account that contains the credentials for the equivalent admin-level eDirectory user must exist before you can perform backup jobs for eDirectory.
