Using the Users Tab for the Enterprise Tier

The Users tab and its sub-tabs allow you to create and delete users for the Enterprise tier. You do this by mapping user names on the Gateway tier to the user names and passwords for the Enterprise Connector.

This section describes the following tasks:

• Using the General Tab for the Enterprise Tier

• Creating Users for the Enterprise Tier

• Viewing and Deleting Users for the Enterprise Tier

Creating Users for the Enterprise Tier

To create a user for the Enterprise tier, use the Account Data panel of the Create User sub-tab to map a user on the Gateway tier to a user for the Enterprise Connector on the Enterprise tier, which may be mapped to the account for a specific EIS/EAI system or database.

You should create the users on the Enterprise tier before you create the users on the Gateway tier. When you create a user on the Gateway tier, if a mapping exists for that user on the Enterprise tier, the specified credentials are verified against the EIS/EAI system or database.

Figure 2–2 shows the Create User sub-tab of the Users tab.

4. In the Enterprise Connector Password field, type the password for the Enterprise Connector.

5. Click Register to create the user.

Viewing User Information for the Enterprise Tier

The Edit User sub-tab lists all the MEP users for your installation in a table that contains the columns shown in Table 2–2.

Table 2–2 Columns in the User Information Table on the Enterprise Tier

Column	Description
Gateway Username	The user name for the user on the Gateway tier
Enterprise Connector Username	The username for the user on the Enterprise tier
Delete User	See Deleting a User for the Enterprise Tier

Use this list as follows:

• Click the Prev and Next buttons to move from page to page of a multi-page user list.

• Type text in the Find field and click Search to find the user whose user name matches the string typed.

  ---

  Note –

  The text you type must be the exact user name, not a substring.

  ---

  Click Clear Search to restore the complete user list.

• Click a column label to sort by that column.

Deleting a User for the Enterprise Tier

Use the Delete User column to delete a user's account. This action deletes the user's MEP account on the Enterprise tier and removes all information about previous synchronization sessions from the MEP database, but it does not delete any data on the EIS/EAI system or database.

To delete a user, click the Delete button for that user.
