Default Authorizations for the First DBM Operator
The first DBM operator [Page 134] you create when you register a database instance
contains all user authorizations [Page
27].
Operating System User Authorizations
The operating system user authorization is one of the authorizations [Page 27] of the
Database Manager operator [Page 134] (DBM operator). To execute operating system
commands on remote computers using the Database Manager [Page
133], the DBM operator
must have operating system user authorizations on those computers.
Use the Database Manager functionality to assign a DBM operator the user identification for
the operating system.
Database User
Database users log on to a database instance [Page 132] and work with database objects
such as tables, views, and indexes (the SAP DB user class [Page 149] is database user).
SAP DB differentiates between various database user classes [Page
28].
Database users can be grouped into user groups [Page 30].

SAP DB differentiates between the following database user classes:
• SYSDBA [Page
