allow remote access controls logins from remote Adaptive Servers. The default value of 1 allows Adaptive Server to communicate with Backup Server. Only a System Security Officer can set allow remote access.

Setting the value to 0 disables server-to-server RPCs. Since Adaptive Server communicates with Backup Server via RPCs, setting this parameter to 0 makes it impossible to back up a database.

Since other system administration actions are required to enable remote servers other than Backup Server to execute RPCs, leaving this option set to 1 does not constitute a security risk.
