GROUP Profile Records

The GROUP profile records contain information needed by OpenExtensions VM and LINUX/390 applications (CA PAM for Linux for System z) to verify user access. The profile data information segments that can be extracted for a GROUP include OEVM (for OpenExtensions VM) and LINUX (for CA PAM for Linux for System z support). For compatibility, OMVS (for CA PAM for Linux for System z support prior to r8.0) may still be used if linuxdata OMVS is included in the CA PAM for Linux for System z configuration file.

The key of a GROUP profile record is a group name, which cannot be masked.
