Re: SAVSECDTA time varying widely

Hi, Joe,

From WRKUSRPRF NETPROFILE you can type a "12" next to NETPROFILE, for "12=Work with objects by owner" ... that may take a while, if that profile owns many, many objects, especially IFS ones.

Then, once the list appears, you can use option "5" for "5=Display Authority" to see what they look like.

Ideally, objects should have only *PUBLIC (*USE or *EXCLUDE), and the object owner as *ALL.  For anything else, *AUTL is highly recommended.

If you see objects with multiple users listed, other than *PUBLIC and owner, those are additional "private authorities" that may be contributing to the slow SAVSECDTA operation.

Hope that helps,

Mark S. Waterbury

Yeah, I think we may need a full team discussion on this.  It seems that
we may have several issues that will contribute to our problems.  But
number one may be authority lists; the problem is I don't know how far
down that rabbit hole I want to go.  But it looks like NETPROFILE is the
place to start.

Is there a way to identify which objects are contributing to the
"percent of private authority entries" column?  That is, is there some
command or API I can run to list all the objects that are blowing up
NETPROFILE (and QNOTES, and QDIRSRV) so that I can try to get a handle
on where I'm going to have to focus my authorization efforts?

IFS authorities can change each time a file is added, moved, or deleted.  I say "can".  We've found by prudent use of authority lists we can cut down the SAVSECDTA by quite a bit.

I'm not sure what "any changes" means. We have activity in our IFS all the time.  Is SAVSECDTA dependent upon files added to the IFS?

We do a SAVSECDTA every night.  Normally it takes two hours, but sometimes it goes up to four or even five hours.  Any idea what could affect it that much?  Same number of objects are saved every night.
