Adding a User Definition

z/OS TSO/E Administration
SA32-0977-00

When you add a user ID, you must supply:
  • The user ID
  • A password, or an asterisk to indicate a null field
  • An account number, or an asterisk to indicate a null field
  • A LOGON procedure
Note: If you set the password or account number to an asterisk, you cannot later add a password or account number by using the CHANGE subcommand. On any future ACCOUNT subcommands, you must use asterisks in place of the password and account number for that user ID.
You can also supply the following attributes:
MAXSIZE
The maximum region size that a user can request when logging on. If you set MAXSIZE to 0, or do not supply a maximum region size, TSO/E does not restrict the region size. MAXSIZE specifies the maximum number of 1024-byte units of virtual storage the system assigns to a user.
SIZE
The minimum region size, used if the user does not request a specific region size when logging on. SIZE specifies the minimum number of 1024-byte units of virtual storage the system assigns to a user. If you set SIZE to 0, or do not supply a minimum region size, TSO/E uses the minimum region size set by your installation. If you set SIZE larger than the maximum region size for the user ID, TSO/E resets SIZE to the maximum.
UNIT
The default specification of a device type when the user allocates data sets, but does not specify a volume.
ACCT
Allows the user to use the ACCOUNT command.
DEST
Allows dynamically allocated SYSOUT data sets to default to the remote destination for processing. If you do not supply DEST, the user must route SYSOUT data sets explicitly for processing.
JCL
Allows the user to use the commands SUBMIT, STATUS, CANCEL, and OUTPUT.
MOUNT
Allows the user to make allocation requests that require volume mounting.
OPER
Allows the user to use the OPERATOR command.
HOLD
Allows the job output from a job submitted with the HOLD keyword on the SUBMIT command to be placed in the hold queue.
JOBCLASS
The default job class for jobs submitted without a JOB statement. If you do not supply JOBCLASS, JES2 or JES3 assigns the default job class.
MSGCLASS
The default output class for jobs without a JOB statement or without the specification of the MSGCLASS parameter on the JOB statement, and if the job was submitted with the NOHOLD keyword on the SUBMIT command. If you do not supply MSGCLASS, JES2 or JES3 assigns the default output class.
SYSOUT
The default SYSOUT class if you do not specify a class with the SYSOUT keyword on the ALLOCATE command.
RECOVER
Allows the user to use the EDIT recovery facility.
PERFORM
Allows the user to request a performance group when logging on.
USERDATA
Two hex bytes of installation-defined data. Your installation might use USERDATA to pass information to a LOGON pre-prompt exit.
