Using the Manage Db2® Privileges panel
The Manage Db2® Privileges
panel consists of two sections:
- Object Identification Criteria
- Use this section of the panel to specify object identification
criteria to identify the objects you want listed. FM/Db2 lists all
objects, restricted by any such criteria, for which privileges exist.
Input in this section depends on the Object Type you specify.
- Location
- Leave this field blank if the objects you want listed are at your
current location. Otherwise, type the full name of the remote location,
an asterisk (*) to display all available remote locations, or a pattern
using wildcard characters. If you specify an asterisk on its own or
a pattern, FM/Db2 displays a selection list showing the locations
that match the input specification.
To select the location you want, type
S
against the required entry and press Enter.Note: You can only specify a location if displaying privileges (command line blank). - Owner
- To select objects regardless of their owner, leave this field
blank. Otherwise, to restrict the list of objects by owner, type either
the full name of the owner or a pattern using wildcard characters.
If this entry field is not blank, FM/Db2 limits the objects listed
to those matching the owner selection criteria you specify. Note: You can only specify an owner for table or column object types.
- Name
- To select objects regardless of their name, leave this field blank. Otherwise, to restrict the list of objects by name, type either the full name of the object or a pattern using wildcard characters. If this entry field is not blank, FM/Db2 limits the objects listed to those matching the name selection criteria you specify.
- In
- This is an optional field you can use to qualify the following
object types:
Object type Qualify by specifying the… Table space Name of the database Column Name of the table Package Name of the collection Distinct type Name of the schema Function Name of the schema Stored procedure Name of the schema
- Object Type
- Use this section to identify the type of Db2® object against which privilege operations
are performed. The available functions for managing Db2® privileges are shown in Privilege functions.
To select the object type you want, type the appropriate number in the Object Type selection field. The default value is 3 (table).
You select whether to display, grant, or revoke privileges by what,
if anything, you type on the command line:
- Display privileges

- To select this processing option, type
G
