Database Accounts

The following database accounts are created during the Siebel installation process. If you are using an Oracle or Microsoft SQL Server database, then you create these accounts when you run the grantusr.sql script. If you are using a DB2 database, then the database administrator manually creates these accounts. You must ensure these accounts have been created in the RDBMS and you must assign passwords to these accounts before you can configure the Siebel database:

• Siebel administrator database account (default user ID is SADMIN)

• A database account for users who are authenticated externally (default user ID is LDAPUSER)

• A database table owner (DBO) account

For information on creating and assigning passwords to the SADMIN, database table owner, and LDAPUSER accounts, see Siebel Installation Guide. For information on changing and managing the passwords for the SADMIN and database table owner accounts, see the following topics:

• Changing Siebel Administrator Account Password on UNIX

• Changing Siebel Administrator Account Password on Windows

• Changing the Table Owner Password

• Troubleshooting Password Changes By Checking for Failed Server Tasks

For additional information on the LDAPUSER account, see About Creating a Database Login for Externally Authenticated Users.

Note: A prerequisite to configuring and using DB2390 is that you must manually copy the db2jcc_license_cisuz.jar file (which is a DB2390-specific license jar file) from your DB2 client location to the following location: applicationcontainer_external/webapps/siebel/web-inf. You must also be licensed to use DB2390 and arrange a license for same. All other client drivers are licensed and packaged in the Siebel product.
