Required OpenVMS Privileges
The system administrator account must have the following OpenVMS privileges:
• ALTPRI
• CMKRNL
• EXQUOTA
• IMPERSONATE
• OPER
• NETMBX
• PRMGBL
• PRMMBX
• READALL
• SHARE
• SYSGBL
• SYSLCK
• SYSNAM
• SYSPRV
• TMPMBX
• WORLD
If the install program creates the system administrator account, it automatically assigns these privileges.
Note: If you want to turn off the vms_accounting parameters, which allow the Ingres processes to be started without a record in the VMS accounting file, the system administrator will also need the ACNT privilege. (If this is the case, all processes started by the administrator will not be in the VMS accounting audit trail).
