Create a CA User Activity Reporting Module User for ODBC or JDBC Access

Use this procedure to create a user account named ELM_Access for use with your JDBC and ODBC clients.

CA User Activity Reporting Module users with the dataaccess permission can use ODBC or JDBC to access event data. Each of the default user roles provided with CA User Activity Reporting Module has this permission. For this example, you could create a user with any of the default CA User Activity Reporting Module roles - Administrator, Analyst, or Auditor.

To create the new user

1. Log in to the CA User Activity Reporting Module server as an Administrator user.
2. Click the Administration tab and the User and Access management subtab.
3. Click the Users button to display the embedded CA EEM user interface.
4. Click New User. The New User dialog opens.
5. Click Add Application User Details and give the account Administrator application privileges.

   Note: In a production environment, you would assign the least permission needed for a user to access the data. You can limit access in many ways including user roles, access policies, and access filters. See the Online Help for more information.

6. Complete the user record as needed and assign a password, making a note of it for later use in this example.
7. Save the user and exit the Users window.
