Subject: Change printer source drawer
The relationship between printer device description and printer file is
very murky to me.

I have a print dev descr for printer HP-1. The printer itself was
physically replaced by another HP. The source drawer seems only to be a
setting in the printer file. I have not found a printer file corresponding
only to HP-1.

Easy way to change source drawer?

Subject: Recommendation for IBMi privileges for an outsourcer to support
an IBMi environment
We are about to embark on an outsourcing agreement with a supplier to
support our IBMi environment.

We would prefer that they don't have the ability to look at our production
data. The following security profiles were recommended

*IOSYSCFG, *JOBCTL, *SAVSYS, *SERVICE and *SPLCTL.

However they say they also need QSECOFR to be able install software, apply
PTF's etc. There is a view (untested) that somebody with this privilege
could run any application on the IBMi environment and view sensitive data.
Even if we had menus in front with internal application security, they
could just dump the data. We don't think they would do that but our
security folks don't like to have security holes like this.

For those organizations who are using outsourcers to manage their
environments, are there some best practices (even good practices) that you
could recommend that would ameliorate that risk? I think to install the OS
you would need QSECOFR but what other reasons would you need it?

Thanks
