Granting User Permissions on Linux and UNIX Machines

On Linux and UNIX machines, you can set up access to the plug-in configuration files in command line interface.

By default, the Veeam Plug-in configuration file (veeam_config.xml) is located in the /opt/veeam/VeeamPluginforOracleRMAN directory on the machine where Veeam Plug-in is installed. To grant access to the configuration file to a dedicated group of users, do the following:

1. Create a new user group by running the following command:
