User rename (dm_UserRename and dm_UserRename_Java)

The User Rename job changes the user name for a particular user. By default, the User Rename job is installed in the inactive state.

The dm_UserRename method is available as a Docbasic or a Java method. The difference between the two method versions is that the Java version also supports international characters, including multibyte characters. By default, the User Rename job points to the Docbasic version, dm_UserRename. To use the Java version, you must change method name in the job properties to point to the dm_UserRename_Java method.

To change the method name:

  1. In Documentum Administrator select Job Management > Jobs.

    The Jobs page displays.

  2. Select the dm_UserRename job.

  3. Right-click the job and select Properties.

    The Job Properties page displays.

  4. Click the Method tab.

  5. Click Select Method and select the dm_UserRename_Java method in the Name column.

  6. Click OK to save the changes.
