Web Interface Installation Guide
The purpose of this document is to provide the steps necessary to configure and use the SBAdmin Web Interface. The
SBAdmin Web Interface is an alternative to the Graphical User Interface (GUI) or command-line (CLI) options for
managing backups and restores. Because of limitations in web technologies, some options will be presented differently than
with the GUI. However, if you are already familiar with the SBAdmin GUI, users should easily be able to utilize the web
interface with little confusion. This document does not include all of the features and options available in the web application,
but it is intended to be used as an addendum to the
SBAdmin User Guide to explain how to configure the web server and
the differences you will find between the GUI and the Web Interface.
As of the time of this publication, the SBAdmin Web Interface has the following requirements:
License: The SBAdmin Web Interface is available for Workstation, Network and
TSM Edition licenses.
Operating System (webserver): The SBAdmin Web server is installed on the Administrator system, so the
same system requirements apply.
Additional Software: The SBAdmin Administrator software (Workstation, Network or TSM
Edition) must be installed. Because the Web Interface uses a secure web
server (https), a built-in random number generator or device like
/dev/urandom or /dev/random must be available. If using AIX 5.1 you will
need to download the prngd binaries. The SBAdmin Web Server requires
these devices to generate seeds for encryption. If you have AIX 5.1 you must
install the Pseudo Random Number Generator from the AIX Toolbox for Linux
page.
Operating System (browser): The SBAdmin Web Interface is not operating system specific, but there is a
minimum version requirement for the following browsers:
Windows: Internet Explorer 7.0, Firefox 3.0, Chrome 5.0
Mac OSX:
Firefox 3.0, Safari 5.0, Chrome 5.0
Linux/Other: Firefox 3.0, Chrome 5.0
