Hello All,
I am working on IIS 8.5 and a newbie as well. After we login to web console through URL

http://hostname:9080/ibm/iis/console

we can create users/groups and assign them required role in the Suite. What I want to find out is, if there is any way we can find the files/location where IIS store that information? Is it some IBM proprietary format or located on the server with /etc/passwd file type format.

Thank you,

All that information is stored in the common metadata repository (a database we usually call XMETA, since this is its default name). You are correct to assume that the format is proprietary, though it can be discovered.

Premium membership is the main way that DSXchange's hosting and bandwidth costs are met. Why not sign up? It's not expensive, at less than 30c (approximately Rs11 on current rates) per day.
