CA ARCserve Backup contains a root-level, super user profile that provides complete control of CA ARCserve Backup.
This profile, referred to as “caroot,” is set up when you install CA ARCserve Backup for the first time. You can set the password for caroot during installation or later using the ca_auth and authsetup Command Line utilities. For information about these utilities, see the Command Line Reference Guide.
The caroot password can consist of any combination of alphanumeric and special characters, but may not exceed 15 bytes. A password totaling 15 bytes equates to approximately 7 to 15 characters.
Important! You should not leave the password blank for caroot.
The caroot user profile controls access to only the CA ARCserve Backup Manager Console and backup-related functions, such as backup, restore, and so on.
