Creating a custom interface profile

Edit online

Create custom interface profiles to specify site or individual preferences for display colors, the initial workspace, and the source for the data that is displayed.

Custom profiles are stored in the &hilev.&midlev.UKOBDATF data set, which is created during configuration of the interface.

Note: This process can also be completed by using the Profile viewing and cloning procedure.

Procedure

  1. In the UKOBDATF data set, create a member with the name CUASITE (for a site profile) or with the user ID that will be used to log on to the enhanced 3270 user interface with the profile (for a user profile). This is usually a TSO user ID.
    Use the profile viewing and cloning feature to create the member. For more information about profile viewing and cloning, see Profile viewing and cloning.
  2. Edit the member and modify it to reflect the site or user preferences.
  3. To activate the changes log off the interface and then log back on again.
