OEVM Profile Data Records

The OEVM profile data records contain information needed by OpenExtensions to verify user access.

Record ID

Fields

recid

UID(uid)
HOME(home‑directory)
OEVMPGM(program)
FILESYS(bfsname)

Field Descriptions

recid

The CA ACF2 for VM logonid. This value cannot be masked.

UID(uid)

A required numeric field that accepts values from zero to 2,147,483,647. A value of zero indicates that this user is a superuser.

HOME(home‑directory)

A field that defines the pathname of the initial directory used when a user enters the OPENVM SHELL command. Specify from one to 1023 upper‑case or lower‑case characters. If HOME is not defined, OpenExtension sets root as the initial directory.

OEVMPGM(program)

An optional field that defines the user's OpenExtensions shell program started when the OPENVM SHELL command is entered. Specify from one to 1023 upper‑case or lower‑case characters. If OEVMPGM is not defined, OpenExtensions gives control to the default shell program.

FILESYS(bfsname)

A field that defines the name of the OpenExtensions Byte File System (BFS) for the user. The value for bfsname is specified in the format:

/../VMBFS:filepool:filespaceid/

where filepool is the SFS filepool the BFS resides in, and filespaceid is usually ROOT. Specify from one to 1023 upper‑case or lower‑case characters. If you do not define FILESYS, OpenExtensions VM requires the user to issue the OPENVM MOUNT command to mount a Byte File System.

Commands

If you insert or change a user profile record, then you must issue a REBUILD command to activate the changes.

ACFSERVE RELOAD PROFILE OEVM USER

Examples

The following example shows how to define an OEVM user:

SET PROFILE(USER) DIV(OEVM)

INSERT OEVMUSR UID(199) HOME(/u/oevmusr) OEVMPGM(/bin/sh) FILESYS(/../VMBFS:VMSYS:ROOT/)
