End users are allowed to restore

Another possible restore policy is to allow all or just selected end users to restore

their own data. This policy provides sufficient security and may relieve the backup

operator from doing a number of restore operations.

When to use this policy

Use this policy in the following cases:

• When the end users have sufficient knowledge to handle restores. You may need

to provide some training for the users on basic backup concepts and restore

operations.

• You use library backup devices with media of most recent backups. The end

user Data Protector user group, by default, does not allow end users to handle

mount requests for needed media. The end users will still need the assistance of

the backup operator in case of mount requests. This can be avoided by using

large libraries.

What needs to be done

You need to do the following to implement this policy:

• Add the end users that are allowed to restore their own data to the Data Protector

end users user group. For additional security, you may limit the Data Protector

access of these users, to a specific system only.

• Install the Data Protector user interface on the systems the end users are using.

Data Protector automatically checks the user rights and allows restore functionality

only.

• When you configure backups of the end-user systems, make backups visible to

the end users by setting the Data Protector public option.

Disaster recovery

This section provides only a short overview of the disaster recovery concepts. Detailed

disaster recovery concepts, planning, preparation, and procedures are described in

the HP Data Protector disaster recovery guide.

A computer disaster refers to any event that renders a computer system unbootable,

whether due to human error, hardware or software failure, natural disaster, etc. In

these cases it is most likely that the boot or system partition of the system is not

available and the environment needs to be recovered before the standard restore
