Command Definition F-K
JOBSECURITY
it is set to LOW, any user may issue these commands for their own jobs (i.e., those where
the job's user name and account matches the user's) and Account Managers may control
the execution of any job in their account.
System managers may use the PASSEXEMPT parameter of the JOBSECURITY command
to control password validation when users stream a job. If you have never used the
PASSEXEMPT parameter and if the HP Security Monitor is not installed, the initial state
is NONE, which means that job passwords are required. When you reboot the system with
a START RECOVERY the last PASSEXEMPT state is preserved.
PASSEXEMPT provides some of the functionality of the HP Security Monitor. For
example, PASSEXEMPT=USER is equivalent to the stream privilege feature.
PASSEXEMPT=XACCESS is similar to the stream authorize feature with one difference:
you may set the USER XACCESS options independently, whereas HP Security Monitor
requires you to enable stream privilege when you want to enable the stream authorize
feature.
JOBSECURITY checks for the existence of HP Security Monitor and, if necessary,
combines the settings to produce appropriate output. When the PASSEXEMPT parameter
is issued and the interaction with the HP Security Monitor produces a different result, you
will see a warning and a notification that the HP Security Monitor is installed. The
resulting command output is also displayed with the warning.
Use
You may issue the JOBSECURITY command from a session, job, program, or in BREAK.
Pressing
Break has no effect on this command. It may be executed only from the console
unless distributed to users with the ALLOW command.
Example
To allow any user to abort, alter, break, or resume their own jobs, enter:
JOBSECURITY LOW
To find out the current job security status, enter:
:JOBSECURITY
JOB SECURITY IS HIGH. PASSEXEMPT IS NONE.
To set the password exemption to USER and then check the current status, enter:
:JOBSECURITY ;PASSEXEMPT=USER
:JOBSECURITY
JOB SECURITY IS LOW. PASSEXEMPT IS USER.
Suppose PASSEXEMPT is currently set to USER and you want to change it to XACCESS. To do
so, enter:
:JOBSECURITY ;PASSEXEMPT=XACCESS
Then check the current status by entering:
:JOBSECURITY
JOB SECURITY IS LOW. PASSEXEMPT IS XACCESS.
