Roles for Applications
ABF and Vision allow you to assign a default role for an application. The default role must be an existing role, created through SQL.
The default role is assigned through the ABF Application Defaults frame and stored in the application's catalog records. You can override the default role in the following ways:
• Use the -R flag to assign a role to an application when building an image with the imageapp command. If you use imageapp to build an application that runs under a role, you are prompted for the role's password. After you create an executable image with an application role, the password is not necessary to run the application image.
• Enter a different role in the ABF Build Application Image pop-up form when building an image from within ABF or Vision.
