Re: Power7 interactive

From: Bryce Martin <BMartin@xxxxxxxxxxxx>
So if you have a web application, and you only have the web app connect to
the DB with a generic username you can avoid having lots of concurrent
users.

Yes, that's my understanding. That's pretty common for Web applications to
connect to QZDASOINIT and QSQSRVR jobs under a generic user profile, for
example.

You can just create your own database to do user authentication to
your app.

That works.

I wonder if they have some sort of TOS to cover this kind of
loophole (unless I misunderstood, and you can't do what I proposed).

It's not a loophole. An application loses a lot of functionality when IBM i
servers are running under generic profiles. Consider all you lose. You also
lose a license to a long list of client software that is bundled with IBM i.
