AUTHORIZATION_REQUIRED entry in vm.conf
This entry specifies that NetBackup should use the vm.conf file SERVER entry to control which hosts can monitor and control devices on this host. This entry is read and interpreted on the media server on which the NetBackup vmd service runs, as follows:
AUTHORIZATION_REQUIRED
If this entry is specified in vm.conf, the vm.conf file also must include a SERVER entry for every media server that controls devices on this host.
If no AUTHORIZATION_REQUIRED entry exists and no SERVER entries exist, any NetBackup server can monitor and control devices on this host.
For maximum security, Veritas recommends that you use this entry and SERVER entries.
This entry is read and interpreted on media servers on which the NetBackup vmd service runs.
