You can run an application server under a user profile
other than the default QEJBSVR user profile.
About this task
To change the application server default user profile:
Procedure
- Choose an existing user profile, or use the Create User
Profile (CRTUSRPRF) command to create a user profile. The
new user profile must have authority to the same objects to which
the QEJBSVR user profile has authority.
- Specify QEJBSVR as the profile for the new profile group.
- Issue the following command from the command line:
CHGUSRPRF USRPRF(profile) GRPPRF(QEJBSVR)
Important: If you use the enbprfwas script to enable your user
profile, you do not have to issue this command. Instead specify the
-chggrpprf parameter on the enbprfwas script. See Step 3 for more
information about how to use the enbprfwas command
- Optional: If the application server is currently
running under a user profile other than QEJBSVR, run the following
commands in Qshell:
- chown -R QEJBSVR profile_root
- app_server_root/bin/grtwasaut -profileName profile_name -user QEJBSVR -dtaaut
RWX -objaut ALL -recursive
- Optional: If the old user profile is no
longer used to run any of the servers in the instance, you can issue
the following command to revoke the authorities of that profile:
app_server_root/bin/rvkwasaut
-profileName profile_name
-user profile -recursive
where profile_name is the name of
the old user profile.
- Perform one of the following actions to enable the user
profile to run the application server:
- See the information about the System i® Navigator.
- Use the enbprfwas command For example, run
the following command:
app_server_root/bin/enbprfwas -profile myProfile
