This chapter describes how to administer users and mobile applications using the Mobile Manager. Topics include:
The installation option of Oracle Database Lite determines user administration methods that are available to a Mobile Server administrator. As an administrator, you can administer users while running the Mobile Server in Standalone Mode.
In standalone mode, all information relevant to group users and individual users such as user names and passwords, are extracted from the Users table in the Mobile Server Repository. In this mode, the Mobile Server conducts the authentication process.
The following sections discuss how to administer users in Standalone mode. Topics include:
This section enables you to display existing user groups and individual users.
To display individual users, logon to the Mobile Manager and click the Mobile Manager link in the Workspace. As displayed in Figure 5-1, the Mobile Server Farms page appears.
Click your Mobile Server name link. Your Mobile Server home page appears. Click the Users link. As Figure 5-2 displays, the Users page lists existing groups and individual users.
Searching Group Names or User Names
To search for a group name or individual user name, enter the group name or user name in the Search field and click Go. The Users page displays the search result under the Group Name or User Name column.
As an administrator, you can add a new group that accesses the Mobile Server in Standalone mode. The Users table in the Mobile Server Repository contains information about new users.
To add a new group, navigate to the Users page and click Add Group. As Figure 5-3 displays, the Add Group page appears and lists the requisite criteria to register user group properties.
Enter the new group name in the Group Name field and click OK.
To add a new user, navigate to the Users page and click Add User. As Figure 5-4 displays, the Add User page appears and lists the requisite criteria to register user properties.
To register user properties for new users, Table 5-1 describes values that must be entered in the Add User page.
