Fields

[PF1] - Help: Invokes the Help screen.
Lock User: Enter any character to prevent the named user from accessing ASF.
Unlock User: Enter any character to allow a previously locked user to access ASF.
Delete All Object Entities In The Catalog: Enter any character to delete all object entries from the catalog. When the area is initialized, all object entries must be deleted from the catalog to ensure compatibility between catalog entries and the data. This allows you to retain your catalog structure (other than objects) because you do not have to reinitialize the dictionary. You will be prompted to press [Enter] before the objects are deleted. Use this option with extreme caution— refer to CA IDMS Database Administration Guide for further details.
Give Administrator Authority: Enter any character to give the named user administrative authority, which allows the user to use the administrator screens.
Remove Administrator Authority: Enter any character to remove administrator authority from the named user.
Assign User Limits And Defaults: Enter any character to access the User Limits and Defaults screen. The User Limits and Defaults screen allows you to override the system default space allocation for the user, override the model defaults, and restrict passkeys.
User Name: Enter the name of the user to be processed. The user name must be specified to lock or unlock a user, or to give or remove administrator authority.
