This task describes how to delete IMAGE/SQL users.

Getting Ready

To perform this task, you must be both the TurboIMAGE/XL DBC and an SQL DBA.

If you want to check the current users before adding new IMAGE/SQL users, issue the DISPLAY USER command. For example:

   >>DISPLAY USER



   TurboIMAGE/XL DB : SALES.SERED.ATC

   DBEnvironment    : PARTSDBE.SERED.ATC



   USER LOGON         DBOPEN MODE  USER PASSWORD  USER CLASS

   ----------         -----------  -------------  ----------



   NANCY.ATC          5            ;              64

   SMITH.ATC          5            CLERK          14



   >>

Performing the Task

Use the DELETE USER command to delete an IMAGE/SQL user. For example:

   >>DELETE USER SMITH.ATC

   >>

Here, SMITH.ATC is deleted as an IMAGE/SQL user and removed from the corresponding authorization group.

The DISPLAY USER command now reflects the deletion.

   >>DISPLAY USER



   TurboIMAGE/XL DB : SALES.SERED.ATC

   DBEnvironment    : PARTSDBE.SERED.ATC



   USER LOGON         DBOPEN MODE  USER PASSWORD  USER CLASS

   ----------         -----------  -------------  ----------



   NANCY.ATC          5            ;              64



   >>

Note that SMITH.ATC is still configured as an SQL user because ALLBASE/SQL tables and views may be owned by this User.Logon.

Task Reference

  • When the last SQL user logon associated with a TurboIMAGE/XL user class is deleted, the SQL authorization group (OwnerName_UserClass#) and views associated with this user class are not dropped. Doing so would invalidate any views that may have been created based on these IMAGE/SQL views.

  • The SQL syntax User@Account (or User.Account) is used to add an IMAGE/SQL user. This name, referred to as the DBEUserID, is made up of an MPE/iX user and account name, connected with the @ symbol (or period). It must contain valid logon syntax.
