Abstract
Changing operational backup parameters on a storage system includes a first actor generating a request to change operational backup parameters, providing the request from the first actor to a second actor, the second actor authorizing the request, and modifying the operational backup parameters in response to the second actor authorizing the request. The first actor may be assigned a role that allows the first actor to generate the request to change operational backup parameters of the storage system and the second actor may be assigned a role that allows the second actor to authorize the request to change operational backup parameters of the storage system. The request may include a time window provided by the first actor. Authorizing a request to change operational backup parameters of the storage system may create a token and an authorization key. The token may be indicative of the request provided by the first actor.
