Before you connect to IBM® Content Manager by
using the shared database connection ID for the first time, you must
change the shared database connection ID to update it in the INI file.
You might want to change the shared database connection ID and password
periodically for security reasons.
To change your shared database connection ID and password:
- In the IBM Content Manager
system administration client, click .
- In the User ID field, enter the
shared database connection ID.
- In the Password field, enter the
password. The password is case-sensitive.
| Database |
Password |
|---|
| DB2® |
Use the password for the operating system user ID. |
| Oracle |
Use the password for the database user ID. |
- In the Confirm Password field, retype
the password.
- Select Password is required for all users logging
on to CM if you want users to enter a password when they
log on to the system. When the check box for the UserDBConnect privilege
set is selected, then the UserDBConnect privilege set is assigned
to the user ID. If the check box is not selected, then the UserDBTrustedConnect
privilege set is assigned to the user ID.
You can assign
the UserDBConnect privilege set for IBM Content Manager users who do not have individual DB2 or Oracle user IDs and passwords. IBM Content Manager uses the shared IBM Content Manager user ID to connect IBM Content Manager users to DB2 or Oracle without requiring them to have
their own DB2 or Oracle user
ID and password.
Alternately, you can use the UserDBTrustedConnect
privilege set for users who authenticate through an LDAP server or
other authentication software when those users log in to IBM Content Manager. After the IBM Content Manager user ID is authenticated,
the IBM Content Manager user can log
on to IBM Content Manager without
a password.
- Click OK to save the changes.
Important: Stored procedures for logon will check
in the ICMSTUsers table for the shared database connection ID. If
the ID is not defined in the table, an error will occur when you log
on to the database.
