Re: Going to level 30 Security

The thing about the audit journals is that it will even tell you things 
that work fine now, but will fail when you go to level 40 or 50.  However, 
I am not so sure that you'll get the same results in going to level 30 
from level 20.

If you're going to make the jump to level 30, you might want to check the 
journals for level 40 or 50 errors and just jump to one of those levels. 
You should be ok unless you're using some obscure package that hasn't been 
updated to stop using those leaks.  If so, the journal entries will point 
it out to you.

You could just try starting the journalling and see what happens.  At best 
it will let you know certain objects the person would not have had access 
to and you can start adding authorization lists, etc., before you jump to 
plus 20.  At worst, it won't tell you squat and you'll just have to clean 
up the journal and receivers.

It been a long since I've needed to do this...

I thought I remembered there was a way to use the audit journals to test 
what will happen when you move from security level 20 to 30 or higher. 
I've been able to find a tip that says basically going 20 to 30 is by 
setting up test profiles. I've also found a tip of going from 30 to 40 
that does use the audit journal using the *PGMFAIL option.

Is there a better way to get from 20  to 30 other than by trial and error?
