Using an Existing Directory Profile as a Prototype

If an existing directory profile contains many of the control statements that you want for a new directory profile, you can use the existing profile as a prototype for the new one.

To create a directory profile from an existing one

1. Enter the following command, replacing filename with the directory profile you want to create and prototype with the file name of the existing profile you want to copy:

   vmsecure admin profile filename prototype
   

   This command copies the prototype directory profile and places you in XEDIT.

2. Add, remove, or change the control statements that you want in the directory profile.
3. Save this XEDIT session and exit.
