Authorizing restricted ARECOVER command authority

When users are added to the STGADMIN.ARC.ARECOVER.agname or STGADMIN.ARC.ARECOVER.agname.REPLACE profiles, the users have restricted command authority.

You can use the following commands to prevent or limit users authority to issue the ARECOVER command with a specific aggregate group name: 
RDEFINE FACILITY STGADMIN.ARC.ARECOVER.PAY1

PERMIT STGADMIN.ARC.ABACKUP.PAY1 CLASS(FACILITY) -
   ID(OPER) ACCESS(READ)

The PERMIT command gives all console operators authority to issue the ARECOVER command with a specified aggregate group name.
