Converting an Authorization List to an Object List

The Toolkit command Convert Authorization List (YCVTAUTL) builds a list of the objects referenced by an authorization list into an object list. The reference may be one of the following types:

All objects that are referenced by the specified authorization list in the specified manner will be included in the list. The resulting list can be used to manipulate all the objects secured by the authorization list.

For example, the effect of the following two commands would be to change the ownership of all objects secured by list FRED to be owned by profile BASIL:

YCVTAUTL AUTL(FRED) TYPE(*AUTOBJ)
 YCHGOBJOWN OBJ(*OBJLST) OBJTYPE(*ALL) NEWOWN(BASIL)
