Creating and Assigning Users to Groups

Before transferring the databases to DB2 for i, you must first create the users and groups you have specified in wkplc_dbdomain.properties and assign the users to their corresponding group. The user and group names must comply with both the database management system software requirements and WebSphere Portal requirements.

1. Create a user for dbdomain.DbUser. If you have provided a value in the wkplc_dbdomain.properties file indicating that a runtime user should be used to connect to the database at runtime, create a user for dbdomain.DbRuntimeUser. When creating these users, use the same user ids and passwords entered in the wkplc_dbdomain.properties file.

2. Create a group for dbdomain.DbConfigRoleName. If you have provided a value in the wkplc_dbdomain.properties file for dbdomain.DbRuntimeRoleName, create a group for dbdomain.DbRuntimeRoleName.

3. Assign the created user for dbdomain.DbUser to the created group for dbdomain.DbConfigRoleName.

4. If dbdomain.DbRuntimeUser is specified, assign the created user for dbdomain.DbRuntimeUser to the created group for dbdomain.DbRuntimeRoleName.
