RE: Need to allow a user without *ALLOBJ special authority can view a joblog for a user with *ALLOBJ special authority.

For the record and future searches, I think the command really is:

CHGFCNUSG (not chgfcnmsg)

I believe the CHGFCNUSG has a user parameter.

Is this requirement for allowing a user to view joblogs for all users with *ALLOBJ or for only 1 such user?

If the former, then the function usage approach is fine. If the latter, then a command with a program that adopts authority is the better approach, seems to me.

I had them do that for me on our production box a long time ago. It's IBM recommended.

Curious why you're looking for an alternative. This works fine.

I need to allow a user who does not have *ALLOBJ authority view an interactive joblog for a user with *ALLOBJ authority.
Currently getting below message

Not authorized to display joblog.

I did find this IBM tech doc that suggests

CHGFCNUSG FCNID(QIBM_ACCESS_ALLOBJ_JOBLOG) USER(USRNAME)
USAGE(*ALLOWED)

This worked, but is this the only solution/alternative?

www-01.ibm.com
This document shows how a user without *ALLOBJ special authority can view a joblog for a user with *ALLOBJ special authority.
