Table 6-2. SECURITY-GROUP Command Summary
Command Description
ADD SECURITY-GROUP  Adds a group authorization record with the specified group 
attribute values. If you do not specify attribute values, the 
current default is used. By default, only a member of the 
local super group can add an authorization record for a 
security group.
ALTER SECURITY-GROUP  Changes one or more attribute values in a group 
authorization record. For all attributes except ACCESS, 
the ALTER SECURITY-GROUP command replaces the 
current value with the specified value. For the ACCESS 
attribute, ALTER SECURITY-GROUP changes the 
existing access list to incorporate the access specification.
DELETE SECURITY-GROUP  Deletes a group authorization record. Afterward, only local 
super-group members can execute the restricted 
commands.
FREEZE SECURITY-GROUP  Temporarily disables authorities granted to users who 
have group access. Then, only the owners of a group 
authorization record, the primary owner's group manager, 
and the local super ID can execute the restricted 
commands. 
INFO SECURITY-GROUP  Displays the existing attribute values of a group 
authorization record.
RESET SECURITY-GROUP  Sets one or more default group attribute values to the 
predefined values of the SET command.
SET SECURITY-GROUP  Sets one or more group attribute values to specified 
default values.
SHOW SECURITY-GROUP  Displays the current default values of the group attributes.
THAW SECURITY-GROUP  Reenables a frozen group. Then user IDs with EXECUTE 
authority on the group access list can execute the 
restricted commands once again.
EXECUTE Execute the set of commands restricted to the group.
OWNER Manage the group authorization record.
