Subject: Re: Mass Change Authority in IFS
Considering the implementation of recursive shell requests, for
large/ requests [i.e. with *many* files and directories] had at one
ime ended with a failure to complete [per resources exhausted or
imilar] or worse when terminating also wreaking havoc with the
ystem by terminating system auditing [bad enough by itself, but
onsidering that if the safety of the QAUDENDACN = *PWRDWNSYS was
nabled, the system would then also go down], I always have used the
L commands or similar via IFSTOOLS. Perhaps someone knows if on
he recent releases the implementation of -r is no longer failing
or taking excessive resources] as compared to the same request
ffected in a CL command using SUBTREE(*ALL)?

I know CHGOWN works, and it is a CL command, however;
There are some things that are just a whole lot easier to do and
in some respects faster and more accurate in a shell script using
Unix commands. Call the shell script from CL if you would like,
but since you can achieve REXX like string manipulation etc in a
shell script, you can achieve a lot more in script than you can
from CL alone. My argument is not that the IBM i commands don't
work, they do, they are just do not offer the flexibility and
control that a shell script might offer. For one time shots, stay
with the CL command, but the moment you find yourself doing the
same task over, consider a shell script.
There is a very good book: "Qshell for iSeries" by Ted Holt and
Fred Kulack (MCPress) as well as the several articles that Scott
Klement has written to show how to use this powerful tool.

Now...is there a way to do a mass CHGOBJOWN on IFS files?
