If your organization purchased Named Users licenses and a server license, the system specialist creates a list of named users to define the users who can access Metrics Management. Configuring named users from Server Tools supports performing bulk updates to the named user list. Metrics Management must run on the server to perform this function. Metrics Management also supports defining named users on an individual basis from Setup➛Users. Metrics Management stores the list of named users in the PbvNamedUsers.ini file.
The Administrator is a special user type. The Administrator can always log into the database even if both the concurrent and named user maximums have been reached. Do not define the Administrator as a named user.

1 Choose File➛Open Servers and Databases.
2 If your organization purchased the database license model, in the main window, select the appropriate database.
3 In the Navigation Pane, choose Server Tools➛Configure Named Users. Configure Named Users appears, as shown in Figure 10‑25.
