This topic describes how to create additional users in the SQL Server instance using SQL Server Management Studio, and grant them appropriate [!INCLUDEssDQSnoversion] (DQS) roles on the DQS_MAIN database.
Your Windows user account must be a member of the appropriate fixed server role (such as securityadmin, serveradmin, or sysadmin) to create SQL login, and grant appropriate DQS roles.
-
Start Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio.
-
In Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio, expand your SQL Server instance, and then expand Security.
-
Right-click the Security folder, point to New, and then click Login.
-
In the Login - New dialog box, specify the name of a Windows user in the Login name box, specify the type of authentication as Windows authentication, and click Search to validate the user.
[!NOTE]
DQS only supports Windows authentication; SQL Server authentication is not supported. -
After the user is validated, click the User Mapping page in the left pane.
-
In the right pane, select the check box under the Map column for the DQS_MAIN database, and then select the dqs_administrator, dqs_kb_editor, or dqs_kb_operator check box in the Database role membership for: DQS_MAIN pane, depending on the access level needed for the user.
-
In the Login - New dialog box, click OK to apply the changes.
[!NOTE]
If you grant the dqs_administrator role to a user, apply the changes, and then recheck the user permissions, the other two DQS roles check boxes (dq_kb_editor and dqs_kb_operator) are also selected.
