It is possible to restrict the users who are permitted to execute jobs. Register only those users who are needed to execute jobs.
Execution user restriction provides the following security-related benefit:
Preventing jobs being executed by unexpected users
[Windows version]
Specify Execute jobs under the respective job owner's authority in the Options sheet of the Define Operating Information window, then register the users permitted to execute jobs in the Define Job Owner's Information window.
Whenever a user marked as "Undefined" in the Define Job Owner's Information window attempts to run a job, that job will terminate abnormally.
Refer to "Defining the System Operating Information" and "Defining the Job Owner Information [Windows version]" in the Systemwalker Operation Manager Installation Guide for more information.
[UNIX version]
Users permitted to execute jobs must be registered beforehand with the user control list for job execution. If a job is submitted with the execution user name of an unregistered user, that job will generate a submission error and execution of that job will be denied.
Refer to "Defining the user control list for job execution [UNIX version]" in the Systemwalker Operation Manager Installation Guide for more information.
Refer also to "Job Execution Privileges" in the Systemwalker Operation Manager Installation Guide for more information about job execution users.
