In which file discoverer connections stored

Question

hi,
When we create a connection in discoverer using discoverer/plus url, in which file all these connections are stored and how to delete a connection.
Fyi, I am talking about Oracle 9ias.

In system-jazn-data.xml only Application Roles GUIDs are stored. There are no GUIDs for users (for example, for users in Weblogic LDAP).
Also I don't fully understand what exactly happens when regeneration of GUIDs is done. Are user guids changed (where?) or only group guids are changed? Or maybe only some references in webcatalog and repository are changed?Good information. I never took a detailed dive into the GUID's in the system-jazn-data.xml file. To answer your other part of the question, here is what the documentation says:
"After changing the directory server that is used as the data source for the authentication provider, it is best practice to update the user GUIDs. If the same user name exists in both directory servers (original and new), then the original user GUID might conflict with the user GUID that is contained in new directory server. A refresh forces the system to reference the user GUID that is contained in the new directory server. Authentication errors might result if the GUIDs are not refreshed and the system detects a mismatch for the user GUID.
The GUIDs that are stored in the Oracle BI Presentation Catalog or in the RPD file can be resynchronized and refreshed as described in the following procedure. " ( http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E21764_01/core.1111/e10105/testprod.htm#BABFIHFJ ).
So I believe the reference to the User GUID's are resynchronized.
