To initialize the security component, you need the following 4 text files:

c:\autoload.cfg
c:\autoload.def
c:\dse\security\branch_users.dat
sutil.bat [or sutil.sh on AIX]

It is assumed that the nessessary class files (or jar) have been already installed and configured.

SECURITY INITIALIZATION STEPS:

1. Edit the file branch_users.dat (if nessessary) to define your users and other attributes.
Define the rights, roles, services, users, etc that is required for your installation.
Also, define the attributes of each object. The format of this file is described elsewhere.

2. If you wish to change the name and/or location of the branch_users.dat file or how this
file gets imported then you will have to edit the autoload.def and specify these changes
OTHERWISE SKIP THIS STEP.

3. The default location of the security databases is the directory c:\dse\security.
If you wish to change this (or any other option of sutil.bat) then you will have to
edit the c:\autoload.cfg file and make these changes
OTHERWISE SKIP THIS STEP.

* IMPORTANT *
The information in c:\autoload.cfg INCLUDING THE LOCATION OF THE SECURITY DATABASES
is for sutil.bat ONLY!
The rest of the applications use the file c:\dse\server\dsesrvce.sgm and you will
have to make corresponding changes there
ESPECIALLY THE LOCATION OF THE SECURITY DATABASES!

4. Run the command initializeAgentAdminTables.bat by typing INITIALIZEAGENTADMINTABLES at the DOS command prompt.
initializeAgentAdminTables.bat must be in your current working directory or in a directory specified by PATH.

At this point your security component has been fully initialized and is ready to use.

Make sure that the options in c:\dse\server\dsesrvce.sgm reflect your configuration
(especially the location of the security files).
