This is a good idea, but remember to do it with your system in restricted state 
(or at least quiesced), otherwise any owned object in use will not be changed 
and the delete will fail.

How about creating the new one, then doing a delete on the old one with
a OWNOBJOPT(*CHGOWN newuser)?  That'd make it somewhat easier.  Not sure
what a copy of a user profile would do for you, either.  Might be worth
looking at.

Subject: "Renaming" a user profile

Okay, as far as I know there is no way to rename a user profile.  If I
wanted to do the equivalent, I would have to create a new user profile
just like the old owner profile, and then move all objects owned by the
one profile to the new profile.  I'd also have to make sure that any
*AUTLs the original profile existed in now had the new profile.

Any other steps?  Has anybody ever automated this process and want to
share some hints?  The more I look at it, the more difficult it looks.

Joe
