unknown user "<str>" Explanation: An attempt was made to access information with a user name unknown to the database (for example, sending mail to the monitor or attempting to execute a database recovery process (DBR)) or to access information with a user name unknown to the operating system (for example, no record in the UAF file). User Action: Make sure the user name is spelled correctly and has been properly identified to either the database or the operating system. Do not attempt to run DBR from DCL; this is not allowed, because the system will automatically manage database recovery. Be sure the monitor user name is correctly specified.
