Work Group Selection

CA Auditor uses work groups to store the results of your freezer requests. The information is kept in the freezer database. You make all subsequent accesses to that information through its original work group. The available types of work groups are:

Personal

A personal work group is created with your user ID. No other users can access your personal work group. This is the default value for freezer processing.

System

A system work group is also created for each CPU at your site. The system work group can be accessed by all users who work on that CPU. Therefore, users can share information about changes to files and programs.

Shared

You can create shared work groups that all users can access across CPUs using shared DASD. Shared work groups contain information gathered by all users.

When you select a work group, the information is stored in your user profile in the CA Auditor user profile database. You can change work groups at any time.

To select a work group

  1. Select option 0 from the Primary menu.

    The Change User Profile Information menu is displayed.

  2. Select option 4.

    The Work Group Selection screen is displayed. The work group that you are currently using is shown. The default value is your own personal work group, which is created for you when you first access this display or any CA Auditor freezer function.

  3. You can select any of the work groups listed on this display or you can create a new work group by entering a 1‑ to 32‑character name in the New Group field. The remaining fields describe the existing work groups that you can choose. See the online help for additional information.
  4. (Optional) To delete a work group that you created, enter D (Delete) next to the name of a shared work group. Be sure that the work group does not contain important processing results. There is no recovery from this function. All information in the work group is deleted from the freezer database when you delete the work group. You cannot delete your personal work group.
