Re: User profile question

In addition, you can even ftp with a disabled profile.

No, A disabled profile can still be specified as the user id in a job
schedule entry and still the job will run fine.  You can also submit a job

using a disable profile and it will run. In addition, you can even ftp with

a disabled profile.

Subject: User profile question

Our SOX auditors are hounding me about User Profiles.    I set most of
the IBM supplied profiles to Password = *none.   I did not change the
Status to *Disabled because I don't know about all of the effects of
doing that.

The help window says:
                      Status - Help

Specifies whether the user profile is valid for sign on or
for getting a profile handle.

The possible values are:
 o  *ENABLED: The user profile is valid.
 o  *DISABLED: The user profile is not valid.

What does "getting a profile handle" mean?    Will a disabled profile
prevent programs from running?
