DB2 Provisioning Roles and Account Templates

By defining account templates for the underlying operating system to a provisioning role, you can manage the operating system accounts and groups while managing the authorization name of the DB2 UDB database. Therefore, provisioning roles and account templates let you manage all the aspects of the DB2 UDB database security.

The DB2 UDB Default Policy, provided with the DB2 UDB Connector, gives a user the minimum security level needed to access an endpoint. You can use it as a model to create new account templates.
