User permissions for geodatabases in Informix
This topic describes the required database privileges for common types of users: data viewers, data editors, data creators, and the ArcSDE administrator.
If your users do more than view and issue simple SELECT statements, they need RESOURCE privileges in the Informix database. Resource-level privileges allow the user to do the following:
- Connect to the database.
- Execute SELECT, INSERT, UPDATE, and DELETE statements, provided the user has the necessary table-level privileges.
- Create views, provided the user has the SELECT privilege on the underlying tables.
- Create synonyms.
- Create temporary tables and indexes on them.
- Alter or drop a table or index, provided the user has the necessary table-level privileges.
- Grant table-level privileges.
- Create new tables.
- Create new indexes.
- Create new routines.
- Create new data types.
You can use the SQL GRANT statement to grant the RESOURCE privilege to the ArcSDE administrator and other users as appropriate.

If your database is configured to use shared ArcSDE log files (the default), additional privileges may be needed. See Log file table configuration options for more information. |

To create a geodatabase in an existing database, the ArcSDE administrator user (sde) must be granted RESOURCE privileges for that database. To upgrade an existing geodatabase, the ArcSDE administrator user (sde) must be granted DBA privileges for that database. *CONNECT to sysadmin is required only if the sde user needs to kill direct connections to the geodatabase. |
Database privileges should be granted and revoked by connecting to the Informix geodatabase as a user with DBA privilege and then executing SQL GRANT and REVOKE statements directly.
Dataset-Berechtigungen sollten von dem Dataset-Besitzer mithilfe des in ArcGIS Desktop verfügbaren Geoverarbeitungswerkzeugs "Berechtigungen ändern" gewährt oder widerrufen werden. Anweisungen finden Sie unter Gewähren und Widerrufen von Berechtigungen für Datasets and Berechtigungen ändern.
