- Normal account: You can create multiple normal accounts for an instance. You must manually grant specific database privileges to them.
Can I modify a specific permission of a super account?
The super account can only be reset to the initial status, not modified to specific permissions.
Can a database be associated with multiple accounts?
No. A database can only be associated with one account.
