RE: ADOPTED AUTHORITY WITHIN CL

["Gallagher, Debbie" <dgallagher@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

     Exactly as Arlene Soderlund outlined in her response, I have done this 
     many times for doing reporting on disk usage. AS/400 will only provide 
     object descriptions if you are authorized to the objects. Clients 
     didn't want me (or the operator) signed on always as qsecofr to gather 
     disk data. So, created CLs that would dspobjd or dspfd or whatever, 
     but the program used adopted authority, so no objects would be missed.

HAS ANYONE USED THIS.
I HAVE A BATCH JOB WHICH IS RUN BY THE USER
BUT NEEDS TO USE A FILE WITH SECURITY DENIED TO THE USER.
SOMEWHERE I HEARD OR READ ABOUT ADOPT AUTHORITY, WOULD ALLOW THE JOB TO USE 
THE FILE IF THE ADOPTED AUTHORITY WAS GRANTED.
     
     
     Happens all the time in packaged software.  Change the owner of the
program
to a profile that would have authority, then use the change program command
with
adopt authority *yes and usrprf *owner.
     
CHGOBJOWN OBJ(PROGRAM) OBJTYPE(*PGM) NEWOWN(QSECOFR) CUROWNAUT(*SAME) 
CHGPGM PGM(PROGRAM) USRPRF(*OWNER) USEADPAUT(*YES)
