Backup/Restore Operator and Restore Choices

Hello guys/gals,

I have created a new Domain, used LDAPs Maps to grant an active directory group a Backup/Restore operator role. When i login with an account that is part of that active directory group, go to Restore and try to do a restore ..the only option under "Restore Destination Client" is "Restore everything to its original location", all other options are grayed out.  So i changed group role to Administrator but same thing, only one option is available. What am i missing ?

Thank you

Have you enabled redirected restores in the mcserver.xml preferences file?

admin@testgrid:~/>: grep "can_direct" /usr/local/avamar/var/mc/server_data/prefs/mcserver.xml

             

             

Change one or both of the above values in /usr/local/avamar/var/mc/server_data/prefs/mcserver.xml from value="false" to value="true", then restart MCS using:

dpnctl stop mcs

dpnctl start mcs

Note that restarting MCS will clear the activity monitor.
