  • 1.  Looking for the best method give all user the ability to use command CHGQRYA.

    Looking for the best method to give all user the ability to use command CHGQRYA command.  I was asked give *PUBLIC access/allowed via QIBM_DB_SQLADM but that seems like a bad option (?-SQL Admin).  I would prefer to give everyone *JOBCTL Special Authority.  Any thoughts?

    If you only want the users to be able to change one or two things with CHGQRYA, you could create your own wrapper command MYLIB/MYCHGQRYA and only expose the parameters you want them to control. Then in your command processing program, you would hard-code all the other parameters for CHGQRYA as *SAME. You would make your command processing program run under *OWNER and make the owner of the program a profile that has *JOBCTL or QIBM_DB_SQLADM.

    Thanks. We had adopt authority in place, but the owning user did not have *JOBCTL.  But I know your suggestion would work also, thanks.

    If this is just to run a particular program then you could put the command in that program and have it adopt authority.

    What value are you trying to change and why?
