System Administrator PROFILE Maintenance Commands

System administrator PROFILE maintenance commands include:

KILL ALL Command
KILL ALL PROFILE < OF userid        >
                 \ BY DATE mm/dd/yy /

Where:

OF userid-specifies a mass delete of all PROFILEs associated with the specified userid.

BY DATE mm/dd/yy-specifies the mass delete of all PROFILEs which have not been accessed since the specified date.

Use the KILL ALL command to delete all the PROFILEs associated with a user ID or all the PROFILEs that have not been accessed since the specified date.

Note: CA IDMS DMLO updates a PROFILE with the current date whenever it is selected for a session. The BY DATE option allow you to purge dormant PROFILEs. You may enter "U" next to a PROFILE on the selection list to force the last-used date to be updated to the current date. This allows you to quickly protect a set of PROFILEs from BY DATE deletion.

RENAME ALL Command
RENAME ALL user1 TO user2 [REPL]

Use the RENAME ALL command to remove a PROFILE from ownership of user1 and associate it with user2. If user2 has a PROFILE of the same name as user1, that PROFILE remains with user1 unless the REPL (replace) option is specified. If user2 doesn't exist, it is created.

Note: The system administrator also has the ability to execute the "LIST userid" command, and delete PROFILEs directly from the list by entering "K" next to the selected items. Users other than the system administrator may issue the LIST userid command, but may not perform any update/delete functions against them.
