User Properties - General

Use the General tab of this window to view or change information about an existing user. You can update the user ID, name information, update the e-mail information, or change the password of the user.

Note: If the federated repositories configuration has changed since the application server or deployment manager was started, you must restart the application server or deployment manager to ensure that changes to users and groups are saved to the current configuration.

For all fields, except the Password field, any leading and trailing blanks that you type are eliminated.

User ID
Specifies the user ID for the user who will be running the application program or the system. You can change the user ID after it has been created. The user ID must be an alphanumeric string with characters that are part of the local code set. Whether the user ID is a case sensitive or case-insensitive string depends on the registry configuration.
First name
Type the new given name of the user. The first name must be an alphanumeric string with characters that are part of the local code set. Whether the first name is a case sensitive or case-insensitive string depends on the registry configuration.
Last name
Type the new family name of the user. The last name must be an alphanumeric string with characters that are part of the local code set. Whether the last name is a case sensitive or case-insensitive string depends on the registry configuration.
E-mail
Optional: Type the address where e-mail for the user is to be sent. The e-mail address must be an alphanumeric string with characters that are part of the local code set. Whether the e-mail is a case sensitive or case-insensitive string depends on the registry configuration. The standard e-mail format should be used. For example, dianalucas@cnc.com
Password
Optional: Type the password that is associated with the specified user ID. The password characters are not displayed as you type them. You can change the password after the user ID has been created. The password must be an alphanumeric string with characters that are part of the local code set. Whether the password is a case sensitive or case-insensitive string depends on the registry configuration.
Confirm password

Click OK to save the updated information in the user registry, close the window, and return you to the previous window.

Click Apply to save the updated information in the user registry, and leave the current window open

If the user registry is in read-only mode, you can only view the information; you cannot edit any of the fields. After viewing, click Cancel to return to the previous window.

Note that if you support multiple repositories where some are read-only and some are read-write, then certain update options will be displayed even though you may not be able to perform the action. If you attempt to update an object that is in a read-only repository, you will receive an error message.
