For each HANA database, including the SYSTEMDB that will be monitored, create a monitoring user with the following SQL:
create user <Monitoring user> <Monitoring User Password> no force_first_password_change;
alter user <Monitoring user> DISABLE PASSWORD LIFETIME;
grant MONITORING to <Monitoring user>

Figure 10: Sample Monitoring User
Note:
Option "no force_first_password_change" - the password does not need to be changed on the first time login.
Option "DISABLE PASSWORD LIFETIME" is considered a technical user. Thus, it is exempted from changing the password as specified in the parameter "maximum_password_lifetime".
ALTER USER <user> DISABLE PASSWORD LIFETIME
To verify it has a lifetime password:
SELECT USER_NAME, PASSWORD_CHANGE_TIME FROM USERS WHERE USER_NAME = '<user>';
It should have an empty PASSWORD_CHANGE_TIME value

Monitoring Role (extract from Security Guide) - This role contains privileges for full read-only access to all metadata, the current system status in the system and monitoring views, and the data collected by the statistics server.
Note: For MDC (multi-tenant), the user should be created in the SYSTEMDB, and each tenant database will be registered in IT-Conductor.
To list (SQL) port numbers for SYSTEMDB and Tenant DBs used in registering.
select * from sys_databases.m_services
where sql_port <> 0;
