Searching on users and groups provides you with a lot of flexibility to query the user and group inventory for the information you want.
To access the Search window, right-click
an endpoint system and select .
The Basic search is for quick searches to find a particular user or group. The Advanced search page gives you the flexibility to search on additional profile properties. For example, you can search for all users on this endpoint system or system group with security officer authority by selecting Privilege class, and then selecting Security officer.
You can click And or Or to search on additional fields. For example, if you are searching for all users on this endpoint system or system group with security officer authority, you can narrow the search to users in your Accounting department with security officer authority by clicking And and selecting Department and entering the string Accounting.
From the Search Results window, you can perform many of the actions that you can perform on a user or group elsewhere within iSeries™ Navigator. For example, you can delete a user or group, edit the profile (for example, remove its Security Officer authority), view its properties, or scan for objects owned by a user or group. Also from the results window, you can export the search results into a spreadsheet, text file, or HTML (Web) page.
Advanced search is available only for user and group inventories, which require that both the central system and the endpoint systems are running OS/400® V5R1 or later.
