<p>The Change Group Attributes (CHGGRPA) command changes the group attributes of an interactive job. The CHGGRPA command must be used to change an interactive job into a group job before a Transfer to Group Job (TFRGRPJOB) command can be used. The following attributes can be changed:
</p>
<ul>
<li>An interactive job can be changed into a group job.
</li>
<li>A group job can be changed into a non-group, interactive job.
</li>
<li>A message queue can be associated with a group.
</li>
<li>A message queue can be disassociated from a group.
</li>
<li>A group job's descriptive text can be changed.
</li>
</ul>
<p>More information about group jobs is in the Work Management information in the iSeries Information Center at http://www.ibm.com/eserver/iseries/infocenter.
</p>
<p><b>Restrictions:</b>
</p>
<ol>
<li>To use this command, you must have:
<ul>
<li>use (*USE) authority to the message queue (MSGQ) and execute (*EXECUTE) authority to the library that contains that message queue.
</li>
</ul>
</li>
</ol>

<dd>The group job name does not change.

<dt><b>*NONE</b></dt>
<dd>The only active job in a group is made a non-group interactive job, the group data area (*GDA) is deleted, and the group message queue (if there is one) is disassociated from the group; the mode of the group message queue, however, does not change.
</dd>
<dt><b><i>name</i></b></dt>
<dd>Specify the group job name that is assigned to the interactive job issuing this command. This causes the job to become a group job and also causes the group data area (*GDA) to be created. This character type data area is 512 bytes long, and at first, it is filled with blanks. Specifying a group job name is valid only when the job is not a group job. Once a job is assigned a group job name, that name cannot be changed (except to set it to *NONE if it is the only active job in the group).

<p><b>Example 1: Changing an Interactive Job to a Group Job</b>
</p>
<p>
<pre>
CHGGRPA GRPJOB(GROUPJ1) MSGQ(QGPL/GRPMSGQ)
</pre>
</p>
<p>An interactive job is first changed to a group job before it is allowed to create other group jobs at the work station. This command changes a work station job into a group job with the group job name GROUPJ1; a message queue is associated with the group and (as long as it is in break or notify mode in the job issuing a TFRGRPJOB or End Group Job (ENDGRPJOB) command) is allocated to the active job in the group. The group data area (*GDA) is also created.
</p>
<p><b>Example 2: Changing a Group Job to a Nongroup Job</b>
</p>
<p>
<pre>
CHGGRPA GRPJOB(*NONE)
</pre>
</p>
<p>Assume that the job in the previous example issues this command. Assume also that the job is the only active job in the group. Group job GROUPJ1 is changed into a nongroup, interactive job. The group job name is removed, and the group data area (*GDA) is deleted. The change from a group job into a nongroup job occurs only if it is the only active job in the group.
