OMVSGRP—Assign an OMVSGRP Segment and Default Group

Valid on z/OS 1.13 and below.

Use the OMVSGRP control option to specify an ACID that provides the OMVSGRP segment for an extract (REQUEST=EXTRACT call) for any group that does not have an OMVSGRP segment.

Note: OMVSGRP and OMVSUSR are not supported in z/OS 2.1 and above.

This specified ACID will also be the value used as DFLTGRP for an extract for any user who does not have the DFLTGRP field defined. The ACID is not used as a default group for such a user at signon time.

All entry methods are accepted.

This control option has the following format:

OMVSGRP(acid)

acid: Specifies an ACID that provides the OMVSGRP segment (for groups) and DFLTGRP (for users) on an extract. The specified ACID should be a group ACID and should be given the GID field.
