Privileges to Create, Alter, and Drop Object Instances

To create an object instance by altering an existing one, or to alter or drop an object instance, you must be able to view the object and any related objects that might appear in lists in Create/Alter dialogs. To create an object instance without altering an existing one, you do not need to be able to view the object.

To execute the syntax generated by CA IDMS Visual DBA for the CA IDMS compilers or DCMT programs, you must be able to pass all standard CA IDMS security checks. In this way CA IDMS Visual DBA does not differ from any compiler invoked directly on a CA IDMS system; that is, to Drop an instance of the DMCL object, you need to have Drop privileges for that DMCL instance.
