The OVM segment in user profiles

When you define a new OpenExtensions for z/VM® user or change OVM attributes for an existing user, you can specify the following information in the OVM segment of a user's profile:

UID: The user's OpenExtensions for z/VM user identifier
FSROOT: The user's OpenExtensions for z/VM file system root directory
HOME: The user's OpenExtensions for z/VM initial directory path name
PROGRAM: The user's OpenExtensions for z/VM program path name, such as a default shell program

To define or change information in the OVM segment of a user profile, you must have the SPECIAL attribute or at least UPDATE authority to the segment through field-level access control.

To display information in the OVM segment of a user profile, you must have the SPECIAL attribute or at least READ authority to the segment through field-level access control.
