An administrative user with client owner authority can set parameters on the dsmInitEx function call to start sessions. This user can function as an "administrative user" with backup and restore authority for the defined nodes. To receive client owner authority, enter the following commands:
REGister Admin admin_name password
Where admin_name is the "administrative user" name and password is the admin password.
Grant Authority admin_name classes authority node
Where admin_name is the "administrative user", classes is the node, authority is the owner (full backup and restore authority for the node), node (single node) or domain (group of nodes).
Register Node node_name password userid
Where node_name is the client user node, password is the client user node password, and userid is the "administrative user" name.
When the application wants to use "administrative user", it calls the dsmInitEx function call with the userName and userNamePswd parameters.
dsmInitEx clientNodeName = NULL clientOwnerName = NULL clientPassword = NULL userName = 'administrative user' name userNamePswd = 'administrative user' password
You can set the passwordaccess option to generate or prompt. With either parameter, the userNamePswd value starts the session. Once the session starts, any backup or restore process can occur for that node.
