-ux: Logging on to the XUSER Program

In the Database Manager CLI, you use the DBM option -ux to log on to the XUSER program using the data stored under the DEFAULT user key.

You can use this DBM option together with the DBM options for changing (-us) or deleting (-ud) XUSER entries and to display the user data saved in the XUSER program (-ul).

Recommendation

We recommend that you use the XUSER tool directly.

End of the recommendation.

Prerequisites

You have saved the user name and password of a valid database user under the DEFAULT user key.
