How the system establishes the primary group for restored objects

Many objects on the system have a primary group. When you restore an object, the system determines the primary group for the object by using a list or rules.

The list of rules that the system uses is as follows:

• If the profile that is the primary group for the object is on the system, that profile is the primary group for the object.
• If the profile that is the primary group for the object is not on the system, the primary group is set to *NONE. Message CPI380E is sent to the job log.
• If the object exists on the system and the primary group on the system is different from the primary group on the save media, the system does not restore the object unless you specify ALWOBJDIF(*PGP), ALWOBJDIF(*COMPATIBLE) or ALWOBJDIF(*ALL). In that case, the system restores the object with the primary group on the system.
