<h1 class="topictitle1">Change a user group</h1>
|
||
<div><p>This article describes how to change a user group, explains why
|
||
it is important, and provides step-by-step instructions.</p>
|
||
<p>You will need to handle different types of changes to the characteristics
|
||
of a group in different ways. Following are some examples of changes and how
|
||
to deal with them.</p>
|
||
<p><strong>Changing the group’s authority</strong> </p>
|
||
<div class="p">You may discover that the group needs authority to objects that you did
|
||
not anticipate in your initial planning. Do the following: <ol><li>Use the Edit Object Authority (EDTOBJAUT) command to give the group the
|
||
correct access to the objects or to an appropriate authorization list. <span class="q">"Setting
|
||
up specific authorities"</span> shows an example of how to do this. Every member
|
||
of the group gets authority to the object when you give the group authority.</li>
|
||
<li>If you give the group authority to a confidential resource, you may want
|
||
to verify the current members of the group. Use the Display User Profile command
|
||
(DSPUSRPRF group-profile-name *GRPMBR) to list the group members.</li>
|
||
</ol>
|
||
</div>
|
||
<p><strong>Changing the customizing for the group</strong> </p>
|
||
<p>You may need to change the user environment setup for members of a group.
|
||
For example, if a department gets its own printer, you want the new printer
|
||
to be the default for the members of that department’s user group. Or, when
|
||
your system gets a new application installed, members of a user group may
|
||
want a different initial menu when they sign on. </p>
|
||
<p>The group profile provides a pattern that you can copy to create individual
|
||
profiles for group members. The customizing values in the group profile do
|
||
not affect the individual user profiles after you create them, however. For
|
||
example, changing a field, such as Printer device in the group profile, has
|
||
no affect on the group members. You need to change the Printer device field
|
||
in each individual user profile. </p>
|
||
<div class="p">You can use the Work with User Profile display to change a parameter for
|
||
more than one user at a time. The example shows changing the output queue
|
||
for all members of a group: <ol><li>Type WRKUSRPRF *ALL and press the Enter key.</li>
|
||
<li>If you see the Work with User Enrollment display, use F21 (Select assistance
|
||
level) to change to the Work with User Profile display.<pre class="screen"> Work with User Profiles
|
||
|
||
Type options, press Enter.

|
||
</li>
|
||
<li>Type a <kbd class="userinput">2</kbd> (Change) next to each profile that you
|
||
want to change. </li>
|
||
<li>On the parameter line at the bottom of the display, type the parameter
|
||
name and the new value. If you do not know the parameter name, press F4 (Prompt). </li>
|
||
<li>Press the Enter key. You receive a confirmation message for each profile
|
||
that changed. Although changing a customizing field in the group profile has
|
||
no affect on the group members, it may help you in the future. The group profile
|
||
provides a pattern when you want to add members to the group later. It is
|
||
also a record of the standard field values for the group.</li>
|
||
</ol>
|
||
</div>
|
||
<p><strong>Giving the group access to a new application</strong> </p>
|
||
<div class="p">When a user group needs access to a new application, you need to analyze
|
||
information about the group and about the application. Following is a suggested
|
||
method: <ol><li>Look at the Application Description worksheet for the new application
|
||
and your diagram of applications, libraries, and user groups to see which
|
||
libraries the application uses. Add those libraries to the User Group Description
|
||
worksheet.</li>
|
||
<li>Update your diagram of applications, libraries, and user groups to show
|
||
the new relationship between the user group and application.</li>
|
||
<li>If the group’s initial library list should include the libraries, change
|
||
the group’s job description by using the Change Job Description (CHGJOBD)
|
||
command. See <span class="q">"Creating a job description"</span> if you need help for working
|
||
with job descriptions.<div class="note"><span class="notetitle">Note:</span> When you add libraries to the initial
|
||
library list in a job description, you do not need to change the user profiles
|
||
that use the job description. When the user signs on next, their initial library
|
||
list automatically adds those libraries.</div>
|
||
</li>
|
||
<li>Evaluate whether you need to change either the initial program or the
|
||
initial menu for the group to provide access to the new application. You need
|
||
to make an individual change to the initial menu or program of each user profile
|
||
by using the CHGUSRPRF command.</li>
|
||
<li>Review the Library Description forms for all the libraries that are used
|
||
by the application. Determine whether the public access that is available
|
||
for the libraries is sufficient for the group’s needs. If it is not, you may
|
||
need to give the group authority to the library, to specific objects, or to
|
||
authorization lists. Use the Edit Object Authority (EDTOBJAUT) and the Edit
|
||
Authorization List (EDTAUTL) commands to do this. </li>
