Changing the authorization of a console

You can change the system command groups that a console is authorized to enter.

You change the authorization of consoles by:

Using the VARY Command:
The VARY CN,AUTH= command defines which system command groups may be entered through the consoles specified on the AUTH= keyword.

Example:
To assign master level authority to a console named REMOTE, enter:
```
VARY CN(REMOTE),AUTH=MASTER
```
Enter this command through any console that has master authority. If you try to enter this command from a console without master authority, the command is rejected and a message appears to indicate that the switch did not take place.

In console services shared mode, the effect of this command lasts for the duration of the IPL; in distributed mode, the effect of the command lasts only for the duration of the console being active.
