Hi All, I just wanted to let you know that we have some new stuff on jazz: o Nicole has added a "What's new?" page. o I have added a directory for collecting command files and UDCs. o I added my SPOOK command file that supports most of the old SPOOK V commands, plus has enhancements such as selecting all spoolfiles older than x days. o I added a UDC named NEWGROUP. This UDC combines the ONVS= and HOMEVS= into a single command. This is important for managing disk space amoung different user volume sets. A file (acctuvol.pub.sys - can be renamed) contains the mapping of account name to volume setname. By default an AM user cannot specify a volume set different from the one targetted to the group's account. The SM user can bypass most of the restrictions. Here is the 1st page: NEWGROUP group ANYPARM parm_list=![''] comment OPTION nobreak comment This UDC is a substitue for the NEWGROUP MPE command. It disallows comment the ;ONVS= and ;HOMEVS= parameters unless you have SM. It searches comment for the account name in the ACCTUVOL.pub.sys file (which should comment permit READ:any and WRITE:cr) and extracts the designated user comment volume set that all groups/files under the account must reside on. comment comment The format of the file is: comment # comments... comment acctname1(8 characters) user_volume_set_name1(32 characters) comment acctname2 user_volume_set_name2 comment acctname3 user_volume_set_name3 comment ... comment Spaces or tabs must separate the account name from the volset name. comment There is a one-to-one mapping of account names and volset names. comment comment This UDC calls the ACCTVS UDC to see if the group's account name exists comment in the ACCTUVOL.pub.sys file. comment comment There is some customization that is easy to do in this UDC: comment _newgroup_vsok - controls how the UDC handles ONVS= and HOMEVS= if comment they are specified by the user. comment TRUE means AM and SM can specify ONVS= and HOMEVS=, comment in which case the ACCTUVOL file is not searched. If comment ONVS/HOMEVS is omitted then the file is searched. comment FALSE (default) means only SM can specify ONVS/HOMEVS comment and thus bypass the file search. If an AM user comment specifies ONVS/HOMEVS it will be deleted from the comment command line and the ACCTUVOL.pub.sys file will be comment searched. comment _newgroup_file - the qualified name of the file containing the comment account to volume setname mappings. Default is comment "ACCTUVOL.PUB.SYS" ... Please let me know how it works and also if there are any problems. Jeff Vance, MPE Lab --
