Connecting to the Database using the management console

[Former Member]

Hi all,

When I login into the web based management console , I am able to see my system ( and also register other systems 0

However, when I click on the 'Database' - I am required to supply a "User ID" and "Password"

I tried everything : my SAPGUI user/pass , a database user/pass  , the <SID>adm unix user/pass - nothing works.

What exactly goes there ?

Appreciate your help

below is a print screen of the user prompt I am getting when clicking the database component on the left

Hi

thanks for your reply

So , if I understand you correctly , this userid/password is the unix account <sid>adm credentials.

Well, if I understand the articel correctly , you need to either have write permissions for the sapstartsrv executable ( which my admin account currently do not have ) OR have the service/admin_users parameter set with the admin account

So I added the service/admin_users = <my admin account> and bounce

Did not help.

I also have :
