Displaying MXCS user permissions

MXCS permissions define the type of access that a user has to manage MXCS objects on the SQL/MX database. Only a user with OPERATOR permission can view MXCS permissions. Initially, only the SUPER.SUPER user has OPERATOR permission.

The following are basic security rules for MXCS users:

  • Only the user who installed SQL/MX (SUPER.SUPER or SUPER.SUPER alias) can manage the user list.

  • Only users with OPERATOR permission can view the user list.

  • Users with USER permission cannot manage or view the user list.

    The following figure shows the properties in the MXCS Permissions tab. The MXCS Permission tab indicates whether the user has OPERATOR or USER permission.
