Implementing the functional usage model

To get to a list of BRMS function and components, complete the following steps:

1. In IBM Navigator for i, expand IBM i ManagementSystem and click Application Administration.
2. In the Application Administration pane, click the Host Applications tab.
3. Expand Backup Recovery and Media Services for IBM i to see the functions and components available.

Following is a summary of what you can see or do in the Application Administration pane:

• In the Function column, you can see the names of the BRMS functions and functional components.
• If you select a check box in the Default Usage column, you are granting all users access to the function or component in that row.
• If you select a check box in the All Object Usage column, you are indicating that a user or number of users have *ALLOBJ authority at the user level. The IBM i operating system provides a special *ALLOBJ security value, which allows user access to all objects on the IBM i. A user with (*ALLOBJ) authority automatically has complete access to the BRMS functions and components that you mark. If you do not check this box, then BRMS ignores the users *ALLOBJ authority and requires customized access.
• To customize user access, click Customize in the lower right of the pane. In the Customize Access pane, you can select individual users by name and tailor their access as needed. When you customize user access to any of the functions or functional components, the check box is selected in theCustomize Access column in the Application Administration pane.
