Define a group of database server connections in the HCL OpenAdmin Tool (OAT) for Informix®.
OAT groups
provide a way to manage a group of database servers and to log on
to a group rather than each individual server.
To add an OAT group:
- On the OAT Admin menu,
expand Manage Connections and then click Add
Group.
- In the Group Name field, enter an
alphanumeric name of the group.
- In the Password field, enter an
alphanumeric password.
- Optional: To specify that the group has read-only
privileges, select Read Only.
Important: Read-only groups prevent users from modifying a server;
they do not prevent users from accessing potentially sensitive data
contained within the server. Limit membership of read-only groups
to users who are authorized to view the detailed data at the server.
For
more information about the restrictions for read-only groups, see Read-only group restrictions.
- Click Add to save the group information
and add the group.
Next add server connections to the group. See
Creating a server connection
