When playing around with iSeries Navigator to help Grizzly out on the
midrange-l, I noticed a feature,
Host Applications tab,
Operating System/400
All object
Access job log of *ALLOBJ job
Currently most of our developers are set to not have *ALLOBJ access on our
production machine. Some of them service programs running under special
user profiles that have *ALLOBJ. Regardless of attempts to get them to
adopt authority versus having the jobs run under a profile with *ALLOBJ
they aren't budging. Now that I've discovered this new feature that will
allow them to see the joblog and figure it out I am wondering if I should
turn it on. I've yet to see anything in any of these special jobs job log
that would be "curtains for the free world" if it was visible to the
public.
In fact, many versions of the OS ago this was not a concern and these
developers could see the joblogs.
Anyone see a drawback to opening it up?
