Neoview User Roles and IDs
Your Neoview system is delivered with three preconfigured user roles and user IDs:
Default PasswordUser IDRole
hp4BAdmnROLE.MGRMGR
hp4BinfoROLE.DBADBA
hp4BinfoROLE.USERUSER
You should use the ROLE.MGR user ID to set up user IDs on your system as described under
“User IDs” (page 21).
CAUTION: For your system’s security, change these passwords as soon as you receive your
system.
To change a password, follow the procedures under “Changing the Password and Expiration
Date of a Role” (page 24).
About The Super ID
Your system is preconfigured with a super user ID. The super ID is configured to be suspended
and HP recommends that you leave it suspended during normal operation.
CAUTION: For your system’s security, change this password as soon as you receive your system.
To change the super ID password, follow the procedures described in “Managing the Super ID”
(page 97).
About The Services ID
Your system is preconfigured with a services ID. This ID is intended to be used by HP Support
to access the Neoview platform for purposes of normal maintenance and support activities such
as software installation or upgrades, while preventing access to customer data.
Java Considerations
Neoview DB Admin runs in any Web browser/platform pair for which the Sun Java Plug-in
1.4.2_01 or later has been installed. If you start DB Admin using Microsoft Internet Explorer on
a Windows platform and Internet Explorer cannot find the plug-in, a prompt gives you the option
to install the plug-in automatically.
To check the product version of the Java runtime being used, open your browser's Java console
to display the product version information.
For systems that are not connected to the Internet, you must manually install the plug-in on each
workstation. You should connect to the Internet during installation to find and install the most
current version of the plug-in.
These Java runtime product versions are supported:
• JRE 1.4.2
• JRE 1.4.2_01, 1.4.2_02, 1.4.2_03, 1.4.2_04, 1.4.2_05, 1.4.2_06, 1.4.2_07, 1.4.2_10, and 1.4.2_11
• JRE 1.5.0
