Providing a user ID and password for the subscription

All subscriptions defined against a source database share the same user ID and password to gain access to the database. If this is the first subscription created against the source database, you need to specify this user ID and password.

These steps are part of the larger task of creating a DataPropagator subscription. When you complete the steps for identifying the group, return to creating a DataPropagator subscription.

To provide a user ID and password to the subscription:

On the Authentication page of the Create DataPropagator Subscription notebook, specify the following information for the source database:

User ID
A valid DB2 UDB user ID. Ensure this ID has, at a minimum, the SQL privileges that you granted for the subscriptions defined against the database. For example, if you granted the SQL UPDATE privilege in the subscription, the user ID must have UPDATE privileges defined for the source database.

Password
A valid DB2 UDB password for the user ID.

Verify Password
Use this field to type the password again exactly as you typed it in the Password field.

Specify the following information for the mirror database:

User ID
Use this field to type a user ID that has the appropriate SQL privileges and database authorities to accomplish all of the actions that you defined for all subscriptions against the database. For example, if you granted the SQL UPDATE privilege in the subscription, this user ID must have the update privilege defined for the source database.

Password
Use this field to type the password associated with the user ID.

Verify Password
Use this field to type the password again exactly as you typed it in the Password field.
