Figure B.4 – Granting user privileges on a database<br />

B.3.2.2 Grant repository database privileges to the web console users<br />

Two sets of privileges are set on the repository database, and apply to all connected<br />

databases. Both of these privileges handle job management:<br />

Can Manage Jobs<br />

Any user <strong>with</strong> web console access can create and schedule jobs. By default, this privilege<br />

is not required, and all web console users can manage jobs.<br />

Can Run As Default User<br />

When multiple databases are targets <strong>for</strong> a scheduled job the job will be run as the default<br />

user ID that is stored <strong>with</strong> the database connection <strong>for</strong> each database. If the privilege is<br />

enabled, the user that schedules the job must have the can Run As Default User privilege.<br />

By default, this privilege is not required, and all web console users can run jobs as the<br />

default user.<br />

To configure the web console to require these privileges, see the next section.<br />

B.3.2.3 Enable and disable privilege requirements<br />

Depending on your environment, you might want to be more or less strict in limiting the<br />

tasks that your users can per<strong>for</strong>m. For example, you might want to allow all web console<br />

users to be able to configure alerts on a database, but at the same time only allow subset<br />

of your users to schedule jobs.<br />

<strong>Data</strong> <strong>Studio</strong> web console lets you disable the privileges requirements <strong>for</strong> your databases<br />

and <strong>for</strong> the repository database.<br />

For example, to allow all users of the web console to configure alerts on a database, you<br />

can disable the Can Manage Alerts privilege requirement under the Enable and Disable tab<br />

on the Manage Privileges page. See Figure B.5.
