Performing System Management Tasks

Creating the Account Structure for Volume Sets, Members, and Classes 

To create an account structure, perform the following steps:

   1.  Create accounts in the system directory and the nonsystem volume
       set directory.  To create the account ORDERS in the nonsystem
       volume set PROD, enter the following two commands:

            NEWACCT ORDERS,MGR;PASS=SECRET 
            NEWACCT ORDERS,MGR;ONVS=PROD;FILES=1000 

       The first command creates an account entry in the system
       directory, on the MPEXL_SYSTEM_VOLUME_SET. The entry contains
       information such as the account password.

       The second command creates an account entry in the volume set
       directory.  A file space limit in sectors (FILES=), stored in the
       volume set directory, is the only parameter allowed with the
       volume set on which the account is to be built (ONVS=).

   2.  Create groups in both directories by issuing two NEWGROUP
       commands:

            NEWGROUP DATABASE.ORDERS;HOMEVS=PROD 
            NEWGROUP DATABASE.ORDERS;ONVS=PROD 

       The HOMEVS parameter in the first NEWGROUP command specifies the
       volume set where the group's files are to be created.  All of the
       files in the DATABASE.ORDERS group are placed on the PROD volume
       set.  After this step, you can log on to this group.

       The ONVS parameter in the second NEWGROUP command tells the system
       to build the group DATABASE in the PROD volume set's directory.

       By default, the home volume set of the PUB group is the system
       volume set.  The files in the PUB.ORDERS group will be on the
       system volume set.  To change the home volume set, enter:

            ALTGROUP PUB.ORDERS;HOMEVS=PROD
