Adding Security Groups
Except for SYSOP.DALE and the super ID, all super-group members are now 
prohibited from using the commands reserved for the SYSTEM-OPERATOR security 
group. Because SYSOP.DALE has both EXECUTE and OWNER authority on the 
access control list, he can execute these commands and also add other users to the 
SYSTEM-OPERATOR security group.
You can define membership in the SECURITY-OSS-ADMINISTRATOR security group 
by adding an authorization record for that group. For example, this command creates 
the authorization record for the SECURITY-OSS-ADMINISTRATOR security group and 
gives all authorities to TEST1.USER1 (204,001), TEST2.USER2 (240,002), 
TEST3.USER3 (240,003), and TEST4.USER4 (240,004):
=ADD SECURITY-GROUP SECURITY-OSS-ADMINISTRATOR, &
OWNER SUPER.TEST, OBJECT-TEXT-DESCRIPTION ’’Record Created’’,& 
AUDIT-ACCESS NONE, & 
AUDIT-MANAGE-PASS ALL, &
ACCESS TEST1.USER1 (E,O); TEST1.USER2 (E); TEST1.USER3(O)
Verify the results of the command:
=INFO SECURITY-GROUP SECURITY-OSS-ADMINISTRATOR
The display shows:
You can define membership in the SECURITY-PRV-ADMINISTRATOR security group 
by adding an authorization record for that group. For example, this command creates 
the authorization record for the SECURITY-PRV-ADMINISTRATOR security group:
= ADD SECURITY-GROUP SECURITY-PRV-ADMINISTRATOR, ACCESS SECGRP.* 
*
To verify the results of the command:
=INFO SECURITY-GROUP SECURITY-PRV-ADMINISTRATOR

series RVUs. For more information about OBJECT-TEXT-DESCRIPTION attribute, see the
