PROFILE

The PROFILE statement has the following syntax:

PROFILE

>>-profilename-- --PROFILE--+-----------------+----------------->
                            '-HCL--=--hclname-'   

>--+--------------------------+--+----------------+------------><
   '-,--CONSNAME--=--consname-'  '-,--IC--=--text-'   

where:

profilename

Indicates the name of the member that contains the profile. This name must begin in column 1.

HCL=hclname

Indicates the name of the hardcopy printer that is automatically started when this operator logs on. Define this name in the VTAM® definition and in the HARDCOPY statement in the CNMSTUSR or CxxSTGEN member. HCL is an optional operand. The IC keyword, when specified, must always be specified as the last keyword. For information about changing CNMSTYLE statements, see IBM Tivoli NetView for z/OS Installation: Getting Started.

Although each operator can be assigned to only one hardcopy printer, several operators can share the same printer. However, if too many operators share the same hardcopy printer, messages for that device can accumulate and messages might not be printed for some time after they are received.

CONSNAME=consname

Indicates the default extended console name for operators using this profile, if the ConsMask CNMSTYLE initialization statement is either not specified or specified with a value of the asterisk (*) character. When ConsMask specifies a value other than *, the value resulting from using ConsMask overrides the value specified with the CONSNAME keyword. This default console name is used when the operator does not specify a console name using the GETCONID or SETCONID command. It is also the console name used when you issue the MVS™ command and have not previously obtained an extended console. The console name must be a 2- to 8-character value, as required by MVS. Valid characters for console names are A - Z, 0 - 9, @, #, or $. The first character of the console name must be alphabetic (A - Z) or one of the following special characters: @, #, or $. For more information about the implications of specifying CONSNAME, refer to the GETCONID and SETCONID command in the NetView online help. The IC keyword, when specified, must always be specified as the last keyword.

IC=text

Indicates the command or command list that is run immediately after a successful log on. All the text on the remainder of the statement through column 71 is treated as the text of the command, including embedded blanks and commas. No enclosing quotation marks are allowed. If text specifies a command, the command must be defined by a CMDDEF statement as regular (R), both (B), or high (H). The IC keyword, when specified, must always be specified as the last keyword.
