Q:
Delete userprofile : concequences
iSeries, Users, WRKOBJOWN
An employee left the company so i wanted to delete his user profile on our iSeries.
Doing so the system told me the user was the owner of some objects. I changed this with the WRKOBJOWN command and after that i could delete the profile.

Now a few jobscd-entries couldn't start because these jobs used the user profile to start under.

Maybe there are other sorts of jobs that will not start anymore

So, which command or commands can give me a general overview of the objects i must check before deleting an user profile in the future ?

Hi,

You can try the WRKOBJOWN command to see which objects are OWNED by a particular user, but this won't tell you whether jobs are scheduled to run using that user profile. You may also have CL programs which submit jobs to run using specific profiles - which you would also have to search for using something like PDM.

You may also have things like FTP scripts which connect from other machines using specific profiles.

It's difficult to give a list of all the places to look for this as there are so many places that user profiles can be used.

Regards,

Martin Gilbert.
