Adding New Database Users

The ybdbsetup helper scripts is used to create a new db user.

A menu explaining how to use the script can be produced by running the following, without parameters:

[root@******]# ybdbsetup

Possible Argument for /usr/bin/ybdbsetup To create the database use db

e.g. ybdbsetup dbFor application user app_user -u -p/--password

e.g. ybdbsetup app_user -u=hubble -p=PassworD

For replication user use rep_user -u -p/--password

e.g. ybdbsetup rep_user -u=replication -p=PassworD For attunity user use att_user

e.g. ybdbsetup att_user

You only need to use this script to create extra users.

The difference between the app_user and rep_user parameters is that the app_user will be setup with idle disconnect timeout setup.

For example, to create a new app user called hubble2 with a password of mypassword enter the following:

ybdbsetup app_user -u=hubble2 -p=mypassword
