Hello,
I have a configuration FMC1, which has 10 users to access. Now, how do I add 5 more users to gain access to FMC1. I followed like this.
a. added the new users as persons in buildtime
b. exported only persons into an fdl file and imported into runtime. Is this enough to add the new users to load into Runtime Database?
When we try to logon with these users, it is saying Logon denied. Can any body tell me how do I get access to the new users. Is there any problems with Authentication Exits. Or am I doing improper loading the new users ? We are using AIX and DB2.
Thanks in advance,
Mike. |

Thats what I am guessing. When I import it in runtime, I found zero errors. Thanks Manoj.

That means the users are in the workflow. You are specifying the wrong password. If the users are not in workflow then it would error out saying the user does not exist |

If I understand correctly, you are saying you have 2 runtime DBs and wish to copy the users from one to the other.
This will do it:
1. On the system containing the users you want I'll call this FMC1 do an export like this
| Code: |
| fmcibie -uadmin -ppassword -yFMC1 -ePeople.fdl -c"EXPORT PERSON(*)" |
2. On the system you want to move the users to (FMC2) do an import like this:
| Code: |
| fmcibie -uadmin -ppassword -yFMC2 -iPeople.fdl -o |
NOTE: Based on Ratan's note below, I realize that this could be dangerous. You could experience password problems.

you have to change passwords if the system and Group name for these two configurations are different.

This is an excellent point... Does anyone know exactly how the passwords are encypted? I have heard speculation of it somehow involving the System and SystemGroup names for some time, but have never seen anything from IBM on this.

I heard from an IBM guy that they use Group name to encrypt the user passwords.

Ratan:
Yes, this is my experience too... I wish this was documented somewhere.

Yes, they should. It is a very important point. I know a lot of people getting screwed up because of this.

Is this documented anywhere in the manuals? If so, which one and what page?
Thanks,
Bob |

| Is there a way to NOT have Buildtime spit out encrypted passwords? |
