Adding Multiple Users to MC-managed Databases

If you are administering one or more MC-managed databases, and several MC users need access to it, you have two options on the MC Settings page:

This procedure describes how to add several users to one database at once. If you want to add users one at a time, see Creating an MC User.

Before You Start

Read the prerequisites in Creating an MC User.

How to Add Multiple Users to a Database

  1. Log in to MC as an administrator and navigate to MC Settings > Resource access.
  2. Choose a database from the list of discovered databases. Selecting the database populates a table with users who already have privileges on the selected database.
  3. To add new users, click Add and select the MC username you want to add to the database from the drop-down list.
  4. Enter an existing Database username on the selected database or click the ellipses button [] to browse for names. (This is the database account you want to map the selected user to.)
  5. Enter the database password (not this username's password).

    Note: The database password is generally the dbadmin superuser's password.

  6. Choose a database-access role (ADMIN or IT or USER) for this user.
  7. Click OK to close the Add access to resource dialog box.
  8. Perform steps 3-7 for each user you want to add to the selected database, and then click Save.
