UPS Utility Manual

Security to prevent unauthorized access to the UPSUTIL program is provided by two factors:
(1) UPSUTIL is a "Privileged Mode" program. This requires that, in order to run, it reside in a
file group.account that
has the PM capability associated with both the group and the account.
(2) UPSUTIL requires that its user have "System Manager" (SM) capability in order to be able to run the UPSUTIL
program. Users without SM capability can not run UPSUTIL.
To invoke UPSUTIL from an interactive session, type "run upsutil.mpexl.telesup" at the CI prompt, as shown in the
following example:
:
run upsutil.mpexl.telesup
There is no run-time parameter (parm=) and no information string (info=) for UPSUTIL.
When activated, UPSUTIL presents the start-up display information (see Figure 2-1) on the Output file (terminal screen).
The start-up display shows the version and copyright banner of UPSUTIL, the
"help menu" of UPSUTIL's commands, and
then the UPSUTIL prompt for the user's first command input.
