To start/stop Collection Services, SPCAUT(*JOBCTL) is needed. Additional authorities to *EXECUTE and *USE or *CHANGE related objects is also needed. To see related authorities, signon through iNav with a profile that has no authorities and try to start a collection. When the request fails, the failure message box should have a “Details” button that will list all object authorities needed. — Tom

BTW, it’s probably faster and easier to test that than it is to type in a question here and wait for an answer. — Tom

The minimum special authority for that function is SPCAUT(*NONE). Viewing those isn’t a very troublesome activity. — Tom
