IBM DB2 is a family of database server products developed by IBM. Here I was connecting DB2 and WSO2 products. Here I will show how to create users and grant privileges for DB2 users.

Here I have two users. One is 'madhuka' and and second user is 'db2test1'. Madhuka has all the rights (admin). db2test1 is a standard user. I have db2 database called 'regdb7'.

Here I am try to connect to regdb7 from user 'db2test1'.

db2test1 user does not have privilege to connect to regdb7.

Now user 'madhuka' (admin) connects to db and gives privileges to db2test1 user.

db2 => connect to regdb7 user madhuka using <password>

Here pass user grants

Then quit

You can revoke the permission from

db2=> REVOKE CONNECT ON DATABASE FROM USER db2test1
