For sql pgms I use the sql set option DYNUSRPRF=*OWNER

I recall a new sql service…found it...
https://www.ibm.com/docs/en/i/7.4?topic=services-swap-dynusrprf-procedure <https://www.ibm.com/docs/en/i/7.4?topic=services-swap-dynusrprf-procedure>

It may help.

I have an SQLRPGLE program (call it ABC) that is owned by QSECOFR and the
user profile is set to *OWNER.



I have a service program that has an ExecuteCmd function that does an SQL
"call qsys2.qcmdexc(.)" to execute whatever command is passed to it. The
commands are soft coded in a file so I do not know ahead of time what they
will be.



Program ABC has this service program bound (probably not the right word)
into it. However, from an error that I am seeing from the ExecuteCmd
function, it looks like qcmdexc does not adopt the authority of ABC.



I am using the SQL function because the program needs to execute commands on
multiple machines and my SQL call can be qualified to execute on another
machine.



Is there something that I am missing with the qsys2.qcmdexc that gets it to
adopt authority or is there some other way of doing this?



And, before someone jumps on the "You are creating a security hole", it is
what I was asked to do. The current controls will be that the file itself
is locked down so JOEPGMR can't just randomly add commands and the file will
be journaled so there is a record of who added what. I don't like it but I
am a consultant and not an employee and I am not in charge.
