Re: BRMS Authorities

I am in the process of implementing BRMS. Daily backups will be scheduled
batch jobs and the weekly full backup (including *SAVSYS) will be a
scheduled job started in batch with the backups being run at the console
using console monitoring.

What authority level is needed for the user profile which will be running
the saves? Does BRMS assume higher authority or does the user profile need
*ALLOBJ? I really don't like the idea of giving QSYSOPR *ALLOBJ nor do I
want to have to create a user profile with *ALLOBJ just to start the
console monitor. This will only end up being used for other things once
someone realizes it has *ALLOBJ.

Our current backups are done with the save commands in a CL which is owned
by QSECOFR and has USRPRF(*OWNER). This gives the operators the authority
to run the backup.
