Required InForm database accounts

The following database accounts are required for each instance of the InForm Service:

A DBA user for the InForm software. The default name of this user is pfdbadmin.
A user that can connect to the InForm Admin database. The default name of this user is informadmin.

The recommended way to create these accounts is to select the options to create them in the InForm installation wizard. If you need to create either account at another time, you can run a script.

In a multiple server installation of the InForm software, you create the pfdbadmin and informadmin accounts on each server where you install the InForm software.

Note: You need to create the pfadmin user only one time per database instance. Therefore, if you uninstall and reinstall the InForm software in the same database instance, you can leave the Prep Oracle checkbox deselected during the second installation.
