About this task
A user archive contains information about all the users and groups for the database.
When you restore a user archive, you replace all the current user information with the information in the archive. If you restore a user list that has been archived from a different database, your Administrator password is overwritten with the Administrator password from the archive.
To create a user archive, you must be a project manager, a database manager, or a custom user who has the power to archive data.
To restore a user archive, you must be the administrator user.
