Checking in mysql shows that the navigator and navms databases are present:

mysql> show databases;
+--------------------+
| Database |
+--------------------+
| information_schema |
| BDA_ODI_REPO |
| BDA_STB |
| activity_monitor |
| hive |
| host_monitor |
| hue |
| mysql |
| navigator |
| navms |
| oozie |
| performance_schema |
| reports_manager |
| resource_manager |
| scm |
| sentry |
| service_monitor |
| sqoop |
+--------------------+

Checking for users and password shows only a navigator user:

mysql> SELECT user, host, password FROM mysql.user WHERE user='navigator';
+-----------+------+------------------+
| user | host | password |
+-----------+------+------------------+
| navigator | % | <NAVIGATOR_PASSWORD> |
+-----------+------+------------------+
1 row in set (0.00 sec)

Note: With MySQL 5.7 and higher use "authentication_string" instead of Password as the Password column is removed. MySQL 5.7 came in BDA 4.8 so for any version higher use the following instead:

mysql> SELECT user, host, authentication_string FROM mysql.user WHERE user='navigator';
