Enable Users to Submit PSUB Jobs
Beginning in Release 5.0, PSUB users no longer need:
- their own OS account
- a user name beginning with
OPS$
- their own directory for PSUB outputs under their own OS account home. (Instead PSUB outputs are stored temporarily in a user specific directory under PSUB root folder specified inPSUB_LOGS_DIR entry of the OCL_STATE local reference codelist. Then they are uploaded into database and can be viewed.)
New Users
To add new users:
- Use the ocl_add_user.sql script, indicating which new users need to run PSUB jobs.
See the Oracle Clinical Administrator's Guide for more information.
Existing Users
If you are upgrading from a pre-5.0 version of Oracle Clinical, to give users who need to run PSUB jobs access to the opapps account:
PSUB Administrator User
You can give a user the role RXC_VWJOBS (new in 5.0) to allow him or her to:
- View all users' jobs
- View the output from those jobs.
- Stop any job.
The following scripts can grant this role to a user:
- ocl_add_user—Use this script for new users.
- ocl_grant_revoke_rxc_vwjobs.sql—Use this script for existing users. (This script can also be used to revoke the role.)
See the Oracle Clinical Administrator's Guide for more information.
