D.2 Preparing to set an AJS administrator

To set an AJS administrator, you need to complete the following before installing JP1/AJS3:

Check the conditions for setting the AJS administrator

All conditions for setting the AJS administrator must be satisfied. See E.2 Conditions for setting an AJS administrator account in the JP1/Automatic Job Management System 3 System Design (Configuration) Guide and confirm that all conditions are satisfied.
Create an OS user group for the JP1 administrators group

In your OS, create an OS user group to be specified as a JP1 administrators group. Ensure that this OS user group need not be changed throughout operation. To change the JP1 administrators group, you must delete JP1/AJS3 and then install it again. Therefore, do not specify an OS user group linked with a specific group or person as a JP1 administrators group.
Create an OS user for the AJS administrator

In your OS, create an OS user to be specified as an AJS administrator. This OS user must satisfy the following conditions:
- The OS user need not be changed throughout operation.
- The OS user name can contain a maximum of eight alphanumeric characters beginning with an alphabetic character. Note, however, that you cannot use the following character strings:
  
  - AJS2
  
  - ALL
  
  - HiRDB
  
  - MASTER
  
  - PUBLIC
  
  - ROOT
  
  The OS user name is not case sensitive. Therefore, you cannot use lowercase representations of the above character strings, such as all.
- For the primary group of the OS user, specify the OS user group created for the JP1 administrators group.

Cautionary notes:

If you use the system in a cluster configuration, make sure that the name and group ID of the OS user group for the JP1 administrators group are the same for the primary node and the secondary node. Also make sure that the name and user ID of the OS user for the AJS administrator is the same for the primary node and the secondary node.
If you use a disaster recovery operation, make sure that the name and group ID of the OS user group for the JP1 administrators group are the same for the main site and the remote site. Also make sure that the name and user ID of the OS user for the AJS administrator are the same for the main site and the remote site.
