The users specified after the GRANT USER keywords must exist and must not be a member of a user group . They must have the user class RESOURCE user or STANDARD user. The FROM user must have the owner privilege for these users. If * is specified, the GRANT USER statement affects all users for which the FROM user has the owner privilege.
The FROM user grants the TO user the owner privileges which the FROM user has over the specified users. These rights are revoked from the FROM user. In particular, the TO user is granted the right to drop any specified user and to alter the user class and other properties of this user.
