Adding Users to the System
To add users to the system, you normally use the SET USER command, the SHOW
USER command, the ADD USER command, and the INFO USER command.
For example, consider these series of commands, which assigns the group name
ADMIN to group number 1 and adds the user ADMIN.MANAGER to the group.
Use the SET USER command to set default USER attributes:
=SET USER PASSWORD-MUST-CHANGE EVERY 30 DAYS
Then use the SHOW USER command to check the default settings:
=SHOW USER
INFO USER Displays the current values of the security attributes defined for a user.
ALTER USER Changes security attribute values for a user.
FREEZE USER Suspends a user's ability to log on to the system.
THAW USER Restores a user's ability to log on.
DELETE USER Deletes a user from the system (by deleting the user authentication
record for that user).
