Required Oracle InForm database accounts

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

• A DBA user for the Oracle InForm software. The default name of this user is pfdbadmin.
• A user that can connect to the Oracle 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 Oracle InForm installation wizard. If you need to create either account at another time, you can run a script.

Default account name	Installation wizard checkbox	Script and where to get information
pfdbadmin	Prep Oracle For more information, see Step 2: Install the Oracle InForm core software on the InForm Application Server.	informprepora
informadmin	Install Admin DB For more information, see Step 2: Install the Oracle InForm core software on the InForm Application Server.	AdminDBWithDDL

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

Note:

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