Prerequisites

If you are a non-root user and want to perform FLR with restore ACL perform the following steps:

About this task

NOTE:The operation is specific to FLR AUI. It is performed from Avamar Web User Interface (AUI) FLR and not from FLR web UI.

Steps

  1. Linux VM FLR:
    • As an FLR user you belong to the root group. But you are a non-root user.
    • On proxy edit /usr/local/avamarclient/bin/config.xml, add a line
      <enablesudouserrestore>1</enablesudouserrestore>
      to the file if the same does not exists.
    • Restart vmwareflr service.
    • Copy binary RestoreAcl on proxy /usr/local/avamarclient/bin/RestoreAcl to target VM /usr/bin/RestoreAcl
    • On target vm /etc/sudoers, add or modify the following line:
       restore1 
      ALL=(ALL) NOPASSWD:
      /usr/bin/RestoreAcl
      Where, restore1 is the FLR user.
    • You have access right for destination folder, if you are a non-root user.
  2. Windows VM FLR
    • There are no limitations for domain or local user to restore file with ACL. Only User Account Control (UAC) is disabled for these users.
