Changes the attributes of an existing account.

Syntax

ALTACCT acctname [ ;PASS=[ password] ] [ ;FILES=[ ﬁlespace]] [ ;CPU=[ cpu]]

[ ;CONNECT=[ connect] ] [ ;CAP=[ capabilitylist] ] [ ;ACCESS=[ (ﬁleaccess)]]

[ ;MAXPRI=[ subqueuename] ] [ ;LOCATTR=[ localattribute] ]

[ ;ONVS=volumesetname] [ ;USERPASS=[ {REQ | OPT } ] ] (1)

(1) The USERPASS parameter is only available if the HP Security Monitor has been

installed.

Parameters

acctname The name of the account to be altered.

password The password to be assigned to the account. If you omit password, any

existing password is removed. If you omit PASS=, any existing password is

unchanged.

ﬁlespace Disk storage limit, in sectors, for the permanent ﬁles in the account. The

ﬁlespace limit cannot be less than the number of sectors currently in use for

the account.

cpu The limit on cumulative CPU-time, in seconds, for the account. This limit

is checked only when a job or session is initiated, and, therefore, never

causes the job or session to abort. The maximum value allowed is

2,147,483,647 seconds. You may set the counter to zero with the

RESETACCT command.

connect The limit on total cumulative session connect-time, in minutes, allowed

the account. This limit is checked at logon. Every time the process

terminates the counter is updated. The maximum value allowed is

2,147,483,647 minutes. You may reset the counter to zero with the

RESETACCT command.

capabilitylist Either 1) a list of capabilities, separated by commas, permitted the

account, or 2) a list of additions and/or deletions to be applied to the

account's existing set of capabilities. Additions and deletions are speciﬁed

by a "+" or "-" immediately followed by the capability to add or delete,

separated by commas.

If "+"/"-" is to be speciﬁed in the list, then the list must begin with "+" or

"-". For example, CAP=+MR,-PH is legal, but CAP=MR,-PH is not. It is not

necessary to preﬁx each capability to be added or deleted with "+" / "-", as

the occurrence of "+" / "-" indicates an action that remains in effect until

the indicator changes. For example, CAP=+MR,PH,-PM,DS is equivalent to

CAP=+MR,+PH,-PM,-DS
