Unpacking databases
A database is required when installing IBM Rational Change.
Follow these steps to create a new database.
Creating the Rational Synergy session user in the operating system
You must define the IBM Rational Synergy session user
in the operating system. IBM Rational Change uses the Rational Synergy session user
name to run back-end Rational Synergy
sessions. Use csuser, which is predefined in the Rational Synergy 7.2 or later
database.
Defining the Rational Synergy session user in the database
Use this procedure to define the IBM Rational Synergy
session user in the database. The user csuser is
predefined in the Rational Synergy
database. If you are not using this user name, remove the entry from
the list of valid database users.
