Central/Decentral Authorization 

The user data for the DBM operator can be stored either centrally or decentrally.

We recommend that you use central authorization of the user data.

Central Authorization

The user data for the DBM operator is stored in the SAP table DBCONUSR. When the DBM operator is called, this data is used for its authorization.

Decentral Authorization

The user data for the DBM operator is stored in the SAP table DBCONUSR, however, when the DBM operator is called, this data is not used for its authorization.

The XUSER concept is used for the authorization of the DBM operator. You must therefore store the user data on every application server in the XUSER file. Use the following Database Manager CLI command to generate a user key with the user data of the DBM operator:

dbmcli –ux <default_name>,<default_password> -us <dbm_user>,<password> -d <liveCache_name> -n <liveCache_server>
