Copy a User Group

You can receive requests to copy a user group. Repeat these steps for each security group you want to copy.

Follow these steps:

  1. Enter SECURITY after any CA SYSVIEW prompt and select the User Groups.

    The User Groups display is shown.

  2. Enter the ADD subcommand and its parameters to the right of the command prompt and press Enter.

    The new security group is created.

  3. Completely exit the SECURITY command.

    The changes are made permanent. If a user is logged on, the new definitions take effect the next time the user logs in.

A batch utility is available to copy selected User Groups from one security data set to another. See the member GSVUSECC in the CNM4BSAM SMP/E target library for a sample JCL for executing the utility.
