Remote User Information Record
The remote user information record contains a remote user ID and a remote node name that become the key to the record. The local.id parameter identifies a local user information record for this user. You must create a local user information record for the remote user.
The remote user information record is remote userid@remote node name. It specifies the user and remote node name pair defined as a remote user. This value becomes the key to the record and must be unique. Create a remote user information record for each user on a remote node that will communicate with this local node.
Following are the parameters for the remote user information record:
Parameter | Description | Value |
---|---|---|
local.id | The local user ID to use for security checking on behalf of the remote user. The local.id parameter must identify a local user information record. | Local user ID |
pstmt.copy | Determines if the user can issue the copy statement. | y | n y—Allows a user to issue the statement. n—Prevents a user from issuing the statement. The default is n. |
pstmt.upload | Determines if the user can send files from this local node. If a file open exit is in use, this parameter is passed to the exit, but it is not enforced. | y | n y—Allows a user to send files. The default is y. n—Prevents a user from sending files. |
pstmt.upload_dir | The directory from which you can send files.
If a value is set for this parameter, then files can only be sent from this directory or subdirectories.
The specified restriction is treated as the file system root while processing the send side of copy steps and is the default directory for unqualified file specifications.
A fully qualified file specification beginning at the actual system root will also succeed if the first part of the specification matches the restriction.
For example, assume file /aaa/bbb/ccc.txt exists on the system, and the directory restriction specified is /aaa. Then the following copy step specifications will succeed:
Note: If a file open exit is in use, this parameter is passed to the exit, but is not enforced.

Directory path name |
pstmt.download | Determines if the user can receive files to this local node. If a file open exit is in use, this parameter is passed to the exit, but it is not enforced. | y | n y—Allows a user to receive files. The default is y. n—Prevents a user from receiving files. |
pstmt.download_dir | The directory to which you can receive files.
If a value is set for this parameter, then files can only be received to this directory or subdirectories.
The specified restriction is treated as the file system root while processing the receive side of copy steps and is the default directory for unqualified file specifications.
A fully qualified file specification beginning at the actual system root will also succeed if the first part of the specification matches the restriction.
For example, assume directory /aaa/bbb exists on the system, and the directory restriction specified is /aaa. Then the following copy step specifications will succeed:
Note: If a file open exit is in use, this parameter is passed to the exit, but is not enforced.

Directory path name |
pstmt.run_dir | The directory that contains the programs and scripts
the user can execute with run job and run
task statements. Any attempt to execute a program or script
outside the specified directory fails. To restrict the use of special characters in the run directory, be sure to configure Y for the restrict:cmd initialization parameter. For more information on specifying the restrict:cmd initialization parameter, see Restrict Record. |
Directory path name |
pstmt.submit_dir | The directory from which the user can submit Processes. This is for submits within a Process. | Directory path name |
pstmt.runjob | Specifies whether the user can issue the run job statement. | y | n y—Allows a user to issue the statement. n—Prevents a user from issuing the statement. The default is n. |
pstmt.runtask | Specifies whether the user can issue the run task statement. | y | n y—Allows a user to issue the statement. n—Prevents a user from issuing the statement. The default is n. |
pstmt.submit | Specifies whether the user can issue the submit statement. | y | n y—Allows a user to issue the statement. n—Prevents a user from issuing the statement. The default is n. |
descrip | Permits you to add descriptive notes to the record. | Text string |
