Specifying user ID and password

When you run the ARSLOAD program, you must specify a user ID with administrator authority for the application group. By default, the ARSLOAD program obtains the password for the user ID from the stash file. You can also provide the user ID and password through the following methods; however, using a stash file provides the additional benefit of encryption, which none of the following methods offer:

• You can specify the -u and -p parameters each time that you run the ARSLOAD program
• For Windows servers, the Load Data service uses the user ID and password of the instance owner. If you run the ARSLOAD program from the command line, then you should use Windows unified logon.
