Access is denied error when attempting to run Netbackup job on CIFS share on NX4
I'm new to NAS and my backups guy is getting the following error when trying to backup the data on a CIFS share on our NX4 using Veritas Netbackup:
6:18:08.627 AM: [8260.11348] <4> file_access::V_OpenForRead: INF - file opened without system security (auditing information will not be backed up): \\TIC\TIC_SHARE\NPD VM_s\NPD VM_s.vbm
6:18:08.627 AM: [8260.11348] <8> file_system_access::V_GetSecurity: WRN - GetKernelObjectSecurity(\\TIC\TIC_SHARE\NPD VM_s\NPD VM_s.vbm) Failed (WIN32 5: Access is denied. )
I can upload the entire log if that would be of more help...
The share is "wide open" meaning anyone on the network can mount it. I'd love to learn how to lock it down as well... :-)

the service account that Netbackup is using (hopefully it's an account in active directory), can you try to add that account to Backup Operator group on the CIFS server you are trying to backup up.

I am reasonably certain that this will resolve the issue, but, using Unisphere, I cannot figure out for the life of me, where I would make that addition. It does not appear to be an option under "properties" of the CIFS Server. Is that set when you join the server to the domain?

I think we are on the right track here. I don't have domain admin credentials so I cannot connect through MMC to manage the CIFS server. Once I get someone with those credentials, I'll let you know how it goes. Thanks!

you would use windows mmc to connect to the CIFS server. If you right click on my computer, Manage , right click on "Computer Management" and select connect to another computer. Enter your CIFS server name and select OK. There you will see the local groups, one of which is Backup Operator.
