User Maintenance

In Entire Operations, a user ID can be used to enter the system. Entire Operations user IDs should, but need not be defined to the host TP monitor. Several users can log on to Entire Operations with the same user ID and password at the same time. For reasons of data security and in order to trace data modifications, however, each user usually has a personal user ID and password.

This document covers the following topics


Listing Users

Start of instruction set To list all users

  • From the System Services Menu, select the User Maintenance option and press ENTER.

    A User List screen with a list of Entire Operations user IDs appears with their associated owner names:

This User Definition and Profile screen consists of two sections:

Special PF Keys: User Definition and Profile

PF Key Name Function
PF8  Nodes  Define operating system server default user IDs. See Operating System Server Default User IDs for a User.
PF9  Owner  Link a user to additional owners. See Adding and Removing User/Owner Links and Owners.

User Definition and Profile Settings

You define a user to Entire Operations and set main user defaults by using the fields in the upper section of the User Definition and Profile screen.

The fields in the lower section of the User Definition and Profile screen are used to define user privileges for distinct maintenance functions and manage individual preferences for default system settings.

User profiles can be modified individually at any time.

Note:
We recommend that a user with a modified profile logs off from Entire Operations after the changes are made and logs on again to refresh the session. This guarantees that all profile changes are in effect.

Field Description
User ID  Entire Operations user ID.

This is the user ID with which the user should log on to Entire Operations.

See also the sections Entire Operations User IDs and Operating System User IDs in the User's Guide.

Owner at Logon  A job network belongs to an owner.

Users linked to that owner are allowed to perform any activity on that network. This includes the granting of some job network functions to other users. The owner at logon must always be defined.

See also the section Owner at Logon in the User's Guide.

You can link additional owners to a user as described in Adding and Removing User/Owner Links and Owners.

Note:
A user linked to the owner SYSDBA is authorized to access any objects in the whole system.

Profile

(optional)

User ID of a predefined template user.

If using a wildcard, a user can be selected from a list.

The selection of an existing user sets all the attributes to the value of the corresponding attributes in the referenced profile. The predefined templates change permission values.

The field Profile is reset if an attribute of the user maintenance window is manually modified.

Default templates:

=GENERAL or =G Use default general user profile.
=OPER or =O Use default operator profile.
=ADMIN or =A Use default administrator profile.

The user's settings can be modified individually later.

User Type  Determine the tasks the user is allowed to do.

The value entered here sets certain authorization defaults in the user profile. Possible values:

G User with general rights.

The general user can only view and maintain the Entire Operations objects allowed by the administrator.

In addition, the user can view and maintain the objects allowed to the owners and users associated with the user.

O User with operator rights.

The operator can view and maintain all Entire Operations objects and perform all system maintenance functions allowed by the administrator.

A User with administrator rights.

The administrator can view and maintain any Entire Operations objects and perform any system maintenance functions.

With these options, the profile settings of a user are predefined. Individual settings can be modified at any time using the options in the Profile Settings section of this screen.

Language Code  Determine the user language under which Entire Operations is to run.

Note:
The language can be modified anytime during the session using the direct command SET LANGUAGE 1 or SET LANGUAGE 2.

Possible values:

1 English.
2 German.
E-Mail E-mail address used for notifications sent to the user by Entire Operations.

The commercial at sign (@) can also be coded as (a).

Mailboxes  Mailbox(es) associated with the user.

User is notified of any pending requests linked to these mailboxes. You can specify up to 10 mailboxes per user.

Administration Functions See the section Administration Functions.
Network Maintenance See the section Network Maintenance Functions.
Reporting See the section Reporting Functions.
Monitoring See the section Monitoring Functions.
Representation See the section Representation - Display Settings.
Sort Orders  Invoke the Sort Orders definition for this user. See Sort Orders in Lists.
Selection Criteria  Invoke the Selection Criteria Settings definition for this user.
Max. Lines in Log Display Determine the maximum number of lines shown in the log display.

The maximum number can be overridden on the Log Display Selection screen (see Log Information in the User's Guide).

A value of zero (0) or an empty field means that there is no line limit.

Profile Settings for User Authorization

Defining a user profile consists of authorizing the user for a certain level of activity in the various system facilities.

User authorizations fall into the following groups:

You select a group of functions by entering any character in the appropriate input field and pressing ENTER. A window opens with possible functions, the default authorization value according to the user type and, optionally, copied profile.

Authorization Options

The user privileges that can be granted for a function depend on the user type defined for the user: general user (type G), operator (type O) and system administrator (type A).

You can enter one of the following authorization options for each function listed in the window (press ENTER to save modifications, and choose PF3 to close the window):

Option Setting Authorization
Y  Allow function.
N Disallow function.
blank No access.
R Read access only (no definition/modification of item allowed).

Read-only restrictions also apply when using a modify or edit function if provided for an item or a list of items.

W  Read/write access (definition/modification allowed, but no delete).
D Read/write/delete access (all functions allowed).
other option settings Specific or additional options that can be set for particular profile settings and functions. They are described in the relevant sections of this chapter.

Deleting a User

Start of instruction set To delete a user definition and profile

  1. Enter D in the line command field next to the required user listed on the User List screen and press ENTER.

    A confirmation window opens.

  2. Enter the user ID to confirm the deletion and press ENTER to perform the deletion and close the window.

Note:
Deleting a user does not necessarily also delete the owner specified as Owner at Logon for this user. You can use the OW-MB--P utility (administrator rights required) to make sure that an owner is entirely removed from the environment: see Mass Change of the Owner and Owner Deletion in the User's Guide.

Adding and Removing User/Owner Links and Owners

In addition to the Owner at Logon who must be defined in a user profile, you can link a user to other owners and remove existing links or delete owners.

If other owners are defined, the user can switch to one of them during the session. The user is also authorized to access the objects belonging to the other owners by using the SET OWNER direct command (see the Direct Commands documentation).

Notes:

  1. A user linked to the owner SYSDBA is authorized to access any object in the entire Entire Operations system environment.
  2. New owner names must start with a letter and may not contain blanks.

Deleting Owner Links or Owners

Start of instruction set To delete an owner link or an owner

  • Replace the name in the Owner at Logon field of the User Definition and Profile screen.

    Or:
    In the Owner List window, enter D in the input field next to the owner link you want to delete and press ENTER.

    A confirmation window prompts you to confirm the deletion by entering the name of the owner.

    The link to the owner is removed for the selected user, or the owner is deleted if not associated with any other users.

The following applies when deleting an owner from a list or maintenance window:

  • The owner cannot be deleted if it is still linked to the following Entire Operations objects: calendar, network, symbol table and/or event.

  • Furthermore, an owner cannot be deleted if it is specified as the main owner (Owner at Logon) for any user. You have to replace the name before you can delete the owner.

  • If an owner is deleted, all links to the user are removed.

  • Deleting an owner from a list or window does not necessarily delete all references associated with this user. The owner can remain unused in your environment. Use the OW-MB--P utility (administrator rights required) to make sure that an owner is entirely removed: see Mass Change of the Owner and Owner Deletion in the section Entire Operations Utilities.

Operating System Server Default User IDs for a User

For each operating system server node a user is working with, you can define a node default user ID per user. By default, the content of the Natural system variable *USER (described in the Natural System Variables documentation) is used for a node logon.

You can define single or multiple node default user IDs for a user. Apart from these node/user definitions, a user can, of course, also use any other node user IDs that are not defined in the user profile.

This section describes how to define node default user IDs for a selected user. For a mass change to node/user definitions, you can use the NOPUNA-P utility described in Mass Update for User Access to Nodes in the User's Guide.

  3. Add or replace the required values.

    The input fields are described in Fields and Columns: Node Default User IDs.

  4. Choose PF5 to save your entries.

    The window closes and the node default definition is added to or updated on the Node Default User IDs screen.

Fields and Columns: Node Default User IDs

The columns on the Node Default User IDs screen and the corresponding fields in the Node Default User ID for User window are explained in the following table:

Field/Column Description
Node Number defined for a node (see also Fields: Node Definition).

The Node column lists the short node name followed by the node number in parentheses.

User ID Operating system user ID to be used for the node.
Group Name of a UNIX group or Windows domain to be used for the node logon if defined for the respective UNIX or Windows node (see also Default Group).

A group name is not evaluated for mainframe nodes.

See also Operating System User ID, Group, Domain in the User's Guide.

Logon Default

(column LD)

Only applies if several node default user IDs are defined for a user and node.

Select this option for the node user ID to be used by default for a node logon.

You can specify only one logon default per user and node.

If no logon default is specified, the default user ID (if defined) of the node is used. See also Other Definitions for a Node (Mainframe) and Other Definitions for a Node (UNIX and Windows).

If only one operating system user ID is defined for a user and node, the Node Logon window is preset to this user ID.

Possible values:

Y Use as the logon default.
N

or blank

Do not use as the logon default (default).
Auto Logon for JCL

(column AJ)

(Administrator rights required.)

Select this option to allow the specified user to automatically log on to the specified node for browsing JCL.

Possible values:

Y Enable automatic logon.
N

or blank

Do not enable automatic logon (default).
Auto Logon for SYSOUT

(column AS)

(Administrator rights required.)

Select this option to allow the specified user to automatically log on to the specified node for browsing SYSOUT.

Possible values:

Y Enable automatic logon.
N

or blank

Do not enable automatic logon (default).

Special PF Keys: Node Default User IDs

PF Key Name Function
PF2  Add  Add a node default definition.

Line Commands: Node Default User IDs

Line Command Description
D Delete a node default definition.
M Modify a node default definition.

Deleting Node Default User ID Definitions

Start of instruction set To delete a node default user ID for a user

  • On the Node Default User IDs screen, type D in the line command input field next to the node definition you want to delete, and press ENTER.

    The node definition is removed from the screen.

Defining Subadministrators

Defining subadministrators allows you to grant access rights which are not offered by the standard user maintenance facility of Entire Operations.

If the Natural object US-EX--N (delivered with Entire Operations) is not modified, it represents the standard user maintenance facility: Each user is allowed to read, write or delete user definitions, or is excluded from any user maintenance.

Start of instruction set To define subadministrators

  • Modify the Natural object US-EX--N contained in the Natural system library SYSEOR.

    Using US-EX--N you can define any number of relationships between Entire Operations users.

US-EX--N requires the following parameters:

  • USER-1 is the subadministrator, that is, the user who defines other users. His rights over USER-2 are defined in the specification of a return code.

  • USER-2 the user who is defined by USER-1.

  • RC (return code) defines the rights of USER-1 and the relationships between USER-1 and USER-2.

Data Set Name Contents
Y USER-1 can display, change and delete USER-2.
R USER-1 can display USER-2.
other values USER-1 cannot display, change and delete USER-2.

The above entries are made in the DISPLAY MODIFY DELETE section of US-EX--N.

In the ADD section of US-EX--N, you specify if a subadministrator is allowed to add other users. In this case, USER-1 must be set to Y. Any entry other than Y signifies that USER-1 is not allowed to create further users. USER-2 is unused.

In the following you will find an example of US-EX--N which you can use to adapt the program to the needs at your site.

The program does not check whether USER-1 and USER-2 belong to the same owner. You can specify subadministrators independently of their owners. If USER-1 and USER-2 are identical, there are no restrictions.
