SSH Restrictions
Recovery Manager for Oracle has the following SSH restrictions:
• The ssh and scp commands must be located in the /usr/bin/ directory. Create symbolic
links, if necessary. For example, if SSH and SCP are located at /usr/local/bin, create
symbolic links as follows:
#ln -s /usr/local/bin/ssh /usr/bin/ssh
#ln -s /usr/local/bin/scp /usr/bin/scp
• SSH keys on the database server and backup servers must be generated with no passphrase.
Recovery Manager for Oracle does not support an SSH passphrase or SSH agent.
Modifying the SSH Daemon Configuration
If SSH needs to be configured for the root user, then the SSH daemon on the database server,
backup server, and NetBackup master server must be configured to allow root access. Perform the
following on each system:
1. Verify that the SSH daemon allows root access by checking the sshd_config file for the
following line:
PermitRootLogin yes
NOTE: If you are using native SSH, the sshd_config file is located in
/etc/ssh/sshd_config.
If you are using HP UX, the sshd_config file is located in /opt/ssh/etc/sshd_config.
2. If the line is PermitRootLogin no, change the line to PermitRootLogin yes.
