Database Manager without SA

Question

My DBA's will not allow SA connections outside the DBA group. I already have read write priviliges in the NPM database with the Orion user I created in the config wizard. It would be great to be able to use the Database Manager with the created Orion user and not have to enter a SA username and password.

What rights do you have?  To use an existing database, the user must just be in the "db_owner" database role for the existing database.

See this section of the Admin Guide for more detail:

We've improved this issue in Orion 8.5, which is due in a few weeks.

I've upgraded to 8.5 and I still can not use the Database Manager without having SA rights on the database server.
