The internal search function is temporarily non-functional. The current search engine is no longer viable and we are researching alternatives.
As a stop gap measure, we are using Google's custom search engine service.
If you know of an easy to use, open source, search engine ... please contact support@midrange.com.
Thank you everyone for your responses. I appreciate that I can come here
when my forehead has the imprint of the nearest wall.
Bottom line - the location was running on our new, updated software, but one
user was still using an old written script of things to do in order to
prepare the system for the morning backups. This script includes ensuring
no users are on the system, deleting spool files from specific output
queues, and deleting temporary work files. (Yes, it makes me cringe too.
I'll ignore the other security issues for the sake of brevity.)
She would issue the command "WRKF DS154*" and delete anything that came up.
(More cringing.) That's how the DSPF was getting deleted. Yes, I know -
you're saying the same things that I'm saying. Let's not even go there (my
blood pressure's bad enough).
I just wanted to say Thank You to all who responded. When I get time
(whenever that might be) I'd like to implement audit journaling. In the
mean time, I'm going to try to restrict this user from doing any further
damage.
With much appreciation,
~TA~
