Profile libraries
Your site can have several profile libraries, including a distributed version and one or more site-customized versions. Members in this library contain profile information and cycle refresh definitions. Other members are created dynamically.
You can have a site profile library and a user profile library. The site library can be created automatically during installation, or you can create it manually. The site library contains a common profile that is shared by all site users.
The BMC AMI OpsCLIST creates a user profile automatically (if a profile does not exist already). Users should have their own profile library so that each user can specify:
- Unique PF keys
- CYCLE commands
- Target system defaults
- Primary Option Menu
- Unique set of application profiles
The user profiles and site profile should be concatenated before the distributed profile. When a profile is saved, it is stored in the first profile library that is defined in the concatenation.
BBPROF
BBPROF is a distributed target library that is created during product installation.
SBBPROF
SBBPROF is an optional data set. It is created automatically during installation, or you can create it manually.
Use SBBPROF to make any changes that you want to be shared by all users at your site.
User BBPROF
A user BBPROF data set contains profile members that are customized by a user.
A profile data set should exist for each user so that each user has an individual application profile. The BMC AMI OpsCLIST creates a user profile automatically (if a profile does not exist already). This profile is called userid.BPROF, where userid is the user's logon ID.
