Programs |
 |
Even with the minimum set of capabilities, you will be able to run any program that is not protected in some way. Any program found in PUB.SYS (the PUB group of the SYS account) is available for your use, as well as any other files that reside there.
Unless they are protected in some way, you will be able to run any program in the shared group of your logon account (it might be the PUB group). The programs that are in your home group are available to you, too.
Protection might consist of putting a program into a group or an account to which you are unable to log on (because you do not know the correct passwords). It might consist of attaching PH or PM capability to the program.
You will have access to most of the built-in MPE/iX commands. In addition, you have at your disposal command files and jobs. Each of these facilities serves a purpose, and at one time or another, each will prove valuable. Each is discussed in Chapter 8 “Command Files and Jobs”.
This guide does not attempt to instruct you in the use of any of these facilities, but, rather, defines and explains them as tools that you may use. For details on how to use these facilities, turn to the Task Reference - HP 3000 Series 9X8LX (B3820-90005).
Commands |
|
With the exception of those commands reserved for the console, you will be able to use almost all of the commands built into MPE/iX. There are commands, however, that are reserved for those users who have special capabilities. The NEWGROUP command, which creates new groups within an account, is available only to an account manager
(AM capability).
In addition, some commands will perform at full power only for users who have special capabilities. LISTACCT shows the names of all of the accounts on the system. You can use this command to see the names of all of the accounts that exist. LISTACCT acctname;PASS shows the name of an account and its password. This use of the LISTACCT command works only for the system operator (OP) or the system manager (SM).
