Utility Parameters

Parameter Format Description
Pattern cabinet A8  
from cabinet A8 Either cabinet or distribution list is required
to cabinet A8 Optional
Distribution list A12 Either distribution list or cabinet is required
Command/object table A1 Optional
Cabinet profile A1 Optional
Security levels A1 Optional
User profile A1 Optional

Procedure

If cabinets who are members of a distribution list are to be modified, the list must be defined in cabinet SYSCNT. Only members of the distribution list are modified.

When the "Disallow/Reset" field is marked, the filled items in the pattern cabinet are disallowed in the target cabinet(s). In the case of numeric fields (e.g. security levels), they are set to zero.

When the "User profile" field is marked without the "Details" field, all filled items in the user profile of the pattern cabinet are copied. However, the following are never copied: the administrator status, overlay calendar ID and mail status message flag.

To copy items that are not filled in the pattern cabinet, select "User profile" and the "Details" field to display the "Mark to Copy from Pattern" screen.

From this screen, mark each user profile field to be copied. If a field is not marked it is not copied. See Con-nect Administration, section Cabinet Maintenance for information on the user profile and security levels.

Each user profile field has been assigned a unique number (displayed to the right of the field in brackets) which is to be used when running this utility in batch. The numbers are as follows:

For example, the object/command table for cabinets B and C must be modified. Cabinet A is created with only "ADD" and "Address" marked in its object/command table. Using this utility, cabinet A is specified as the pattern cabinet. Cabinet B and C which cannot add addresses are specified as the target cabinets. The "Object/command table" field is marked and the "Disallow/reset" field is blank. When the utility is run, the object/command table for cabinets B and C will be modified so that they are allowed to add addresses.

Cabinet A is again specified as the pattern cabinet. Cabinet B which can add addresses is specified as the target cabinet. The "Object/cmmand tble" and "Disallow/reset" fields are marked. When the utility is run cabinet B cannot add addresses.

Batch Examples

Disallow cabinet B to add addresses. Cabinet A serves as the pattern cabinet. This would be coded as follows:

LOGON SYSCNT2B 
MENU 
B06250 CabA,CabB,,,X,,,,,X
FIN

Modify the user profile fields: Date format, Page length, Window border of cabinet B. Cabinet A serves as the pattern cabinet to be copied. This would be coded as follows:
