Re: Restoring a single User Profile

[CRPence <CRPbottle@xxxxxxxxx>]

  Adding special authorities that were removed as part of the request 
to restore other than *ALL user profiles, may also be required.  IIRC a 
diagnostic message is logged to warn of that if that transpires. 
Similarly for some password and group information.  Specifying the 
SECDTA(*PWDGRP) [Security Data restore option to include Password and 
Group information] should resolve the latter issue.

Page 223: Restoring User Profiles

  If the group(s) for the user are not restored or created before 
restoring that single user profile object, I believe that those group 
attributes are lost, and diagnostic logged to inform of that loss.

  Users that had private authorities to that user [rare; or should be, 
outside of that user being their group, for which reassignment of group 
is required anyhow, and authority is granted as part of that process] 
would need to have those rights granted again.

  After the restore, any required /registrations/ should be performed 
for that user name [e.g. ADDDIRE] just as would be done for any new user 
on that system.
