Specify profile information to display

Type

Specify in which profile file to look for the profile member(s) to display. If the specified profile doesn’t exit, File-AID/RDX attempts to create the profile file.

SITE identifies the installation wide profile file.

USER identifies your own profile file (your userid). When you enter USER your userid displays to indicate your USER profile type.

prefix identifies a profile file with the specified high level qualifier (up to 26 positions). Entering a prefix that includes the string &USERID will substitute the current userid when the profile file is allocated. The prefix must not include the midlevel qualifier.

Example: prefix FDM.&USERID allocates FDM.userid.RDX.PROFILE

Dataset

Displays the full name of the physical profile data set including the prefix and midlevel qualifier for the profile. The midlevel qualifier (product parameter variable RDXPMDQL) is specified during configuration of File-AID/RDX.

Description

Text can be used to provide a more detailed description of the profile’s content or purpose. Description can be entered when copying or renaming a profile.

Line Commands

C

Copy the profile. If you leave NEW NAME column blank, the Copy Profile window (see the following figure) displays where you can specify the new profile name (member name) and profile type, USER, SITE, or prefix.

If your installation has restricted your access authorization to the SITE or prefix profile file, the copy attempt to that profile may fail.
