I am trying to take a backup in itsi-stg(I) and restore in team-stg(T).
The user has full admin rights including itoa_admin. And meta files has write privilege over collections/itsi_backup_restore_queue.
Still, I get below error when I do the restore :

2019-02-14 15:31:47,310 ERROR [itsi.controllers.itoa_rest_interface_provider] [__init__] [exception] [61544] Access denied. You do not have permission to create this object. Traceback (most recent call last): File "/opt/apps/splunk/etc/apps/SA-ITOA/lib/migration/migration.py", line 187, in migration_bulk_save_to_kvstore handler.migration_save_single_object_to_kvstore(object_type, validation, dupname_tag) File "/opt/apps/splunk/etc/apps/SA-ITOA/lib/migration/object_interface/itoa_migration_interface.py", line 120, in migration_save_single_object_to_kvstore dupname_tag=dupname_tag) File "/opt/apps/splunk/etc/apps/SA-ITOA/lib/ITOA/itoa_common.py", line 878, in save_batch dupname_tag) File "/opt/apps/splunk/etc/apps/SA-ITOA/lib/ITOA/itoa_object.py", line 385, in save_batch logger) ItoaAccessDeniedError: Access denied. You do not have permission to create this object.

Could you please provide any inputs or suggestions.

Look like it could be a splunk role permission issue.

  • Check if you are member of the "admin" role and of the "itoa-admin" role, and make sure that some of their default capabilities were not removed,
  • Verify that ITSI teams have the proper roles listed under.

The other possibility is that the path of $SPLUNK_HOME on the 2 environments are different, and the backup is looking for a folder path that does not exist/is not accessible ?

Hi,
Try sending your backup file to temp folder of your destination and then move it to respected path.
