From r9 onwards, you can add individual users and Active Directory user groups to Mart. Individual users are categorized as Server users and Windows users, which are based on the way they are authenticated. There are no database level users in the current Mart.
The descriptions of user types are as follows:
Specifies the user that is authenticated by the Mart server. The server user is an application level user and not a database user. A server user provides the user name and password to log on to Mart. For example, Peter is a Business Analyst and reviews data models. Add Peter as a Server user as he accesses Mart only at the time of reviewing data models. Peter provides his user name and password to connect to Mart.
Note: Only a Server user can access CA ERwin Mart Administrator. There are no database level users in the current Mart.
Specifies the user that is authenticated by the Windows network. A Windows user need not provide the user name and password to log on to Mart. For example, Jane is a Data Modeler who works on Mart. Add Jane as a Windows user, so she accesses Mart using her Windows network credentials. Jane does not provide her user name and password to connect to Mart.
Specifies a user group that is part of an Active Directory. Use this option to add an entire group that accesses Mart. For example, you have a user group ABC-Domain\XYZDivision_AllModelers@MyOrg.com. Add XYZDivision_AllModelers, so that all users that are part of this group and are authenticated by ABC-Domain, connect to Mart. Users of this group do not have to provide their user name and password when they connect to Mart.
