DFLTGRP
User's default group

User's authority in the default group
PASSWORD
User's password
NOPASSWORD
Gives the user the PROTECTED attribute when the user has the NOPHRASE and NOOIDCARD attributes
PHRASE
User's password phrase
NOPHRASE
Indicates that the user cannot enter the system using a password phrase and when the user also has the NOPASSWORD and NOOIDCARD attributes, gives the user the PROTECTED attribute
REVOKE
Date on which RACF prevents the user from having access to the system
RESUME
Date on which RACF lets the user have access to the system again
UACC
Default universal access authority for resources that the user defines
WHEN
Days of the week and hours of the day during which the user has access to the system
ADDCATEGORY
User's installation-defined security category
SECLEVEL
User's installation-defined security level
CLAUTH

SPECIAL
Gives the user the system-wide SPECIAL attribute
AUDITOR

ADSP
Indicates that all permanent data sets the user creates are to be RACF-protected with discrete profiles
GRPACC
Indicates that other group members can have access to any group data set the user protects with a data set profile
MODEL
Name of the data set model profile to be used when creating new data set profiles, either generic or discrete
OIDCARD
Indicates that the user must supply an operation ID card when logging on to the system
RESTRICTED
Indicates that global access checking, the ID(*) entry on the access list, and the UACC will not be used to allow this user access to a protected resource.

To prevent a restricted user from gaining access to a z/OS UNIX file system resource unless specifically authorized, see Controlling access to file system resources for restricted users.

SECLABEL
User's default security label
CERTNAME
The names of the profiles in the DIGTCERT class that are associated with this RACF user ID
CERTLABL
The certificate labels for the profiles in the DIGTCERT class that are associated with this RACF user ID
CERTPUBK
The public key associated with a public key certificate. This is the BER-encoded public key as specified in the certificate.
CERTSJDN
The subject name of the entity to whom the certificate is issued. This is the BER-encoded format of the subject's distinguished name as contained in the certificate.
Note: You can only add or delete the data in the CERTNAME, CERTLABL, CERTPUBK and CERTSJDN fields by using the RACDCERT command. The ADDUSER or ALTUSER commands have no effect on these fields.
