Some DCM operations require the dcm_mgr role while others need the ccm_admin role. If a user does not have at least one admin role, all DCM dialog boxes are read-only.
The dcm_mgr role is required for these operations:
- Defining destination databases
- Defining transfer sets
- Adding objects to transfer sets
- Generating a transfer package
The ccm_admin role is needed for any operation that might change the properties of non-modifiable objects. These operations include:
- Initializing a database to use DCM – During this operation, DCM might add properties to non-modifiable objects
- Changing the DCM database ID or DCM delimiter
- Receiving a transfer set – During this operation, DCM might add or change properties of non-modifiable objects
If you try to perform a DCM operation while in the wrong role for that operation, but you have access to the role in the database, DCM automatically switches your role to the correct one. When the operation is finished, DCM switches your role back to the original role.
