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
