Problem
Attempts to configure cloud storage servers for AT&T Synaptic Storage as a Service fail with popup error message:
authorization failure
The NetBackup Administration Console - Cloud Storage Server Configuration Wizard - rejects all attempts to enter valid User Name and Password combinations for AT&T Synaptic.
The User Name corresponds to a string comprising
vendor supplied Subtenant ID field
a slash character (/) separator
vendor supplied UID field
The Password corresponds to the vendor supplied SharedSecret field
Error
authorization failure
Environment
This symptom may be observed in NetBackup versions 7.5 GA through 7.5.0.4.
Cause
The NetBackup cloud plugin for AT&T invoked a getLSUList() API call to initiate credential verification and the checkAlive() API call to check if the service is alive. It was later discovered that we can not count on the existence of an LSU on the vendor side. The solution involves invoking the getServiceVersion() API prior to passing credentials which will accommodate new credentials which have not been previously associated with an LSU on the vendor side. This issue will only occur the first time new credentials are validated. The problem will not occur after credentials have been validated.
The tpcommand log from an authorization failure will contain these markers:
