I create a user profile called backup and give it *SAVSYS, *JOBCTL, and
*SERVICE (so it can order PTFs if you want to).
Use that profile to start the console monitor job.
Create message queue called BACKUP
Create an output queue called BACKUP
Create a job description called BACKUP and point it to QUSRNOMAX job queue,
and use BACKUP job description and outq.

Schedule the job with user profile BACKUP.
Point your save while active messages at BACKUP message queue.

Now everything is where it needs to be. Don't give QSYSOPR any authority it
does not have from IBM

Subject: BRMS Authorities

I am in the process of implementing BRMS. Daily backups will be scheduled
batch jobs and the weekly full backup (including *SAVSYS) will be a
scheduled job started in batch with the backups being run at the console
using console monitoring.

What authority level is needed for the user profile which will be running
the saves? Does BRMS assume higher authority or does the user profile need
*ALLOBJ? I really don't like the idea of giving QSYSOPR *ALLOBJ nor do I
want to have to create a user profile with *ALLOBJ just to start the console
monitor. This will only end up being used for other things once someone
realizes it has *ALLOBJ.

Our current backups are done with the save commands in a CL which is owned
by QSECOFR and has USRPRF(*OWNER). This gives the operators the authority
to run the backup.
