Description

When running installation with security enabled, after Trafodion is initialized, there is a separate step the customer has to do to map database root user to a valid LDAP user. This step is explained on the Apache Trafodion website: http://trafodion.apache.org/enable-secure-trafodion.html in the Manage Users section.

It would be nice to incorporate this step into the installation procedure to avoid the extra step.

After the Trafodion database is initialized (running "initialize trafodion" in sqlci), the installation procedure should ask the user for the LDAP user that should become the database user DB__ROOT and then execute the following command under sqlci:

ALTER USER DB__ROOT SET EXTERNAL NAME trafodion-root-user-in-ldap;

The trafodion-root-user-in-ldap can then connect through the connectivity interfaces using their own user credentials.
