2535.0. "DCL procedures for creating accounts" by WOODY::FABBRI () Fri Feb 21 1997 14:20

	Hi,

ALL-IN-1 3.2

A new customer as to create 2500 ALL-IN-1 accounts. He asks me if there are DLC
procedures to do it in batch.

Does somebody have one working with ALL-IN-1 3.2, VMS 6.2 ?

Thanks

Michel

    Michel.
    I recall a good discussion of this a long time ago (circa 1991). If you
    have access, look in the ALL-IN-1 V2.4 notes conference on
    IOSG::ALL-IN-1_V24.note, topic number #2742. There is a good discussion
    of the problems and pitfalls in there. I think, looking back, that most
    of the problems lay around how the template data is copied from the
    chosen template to the new account, in batch. This is all quite simple
    now, and we have been doing similar things recently for creating
    Office Server accounts from a management GUI in batch. Just in case you
    cannot get access to this old conference, I will mail you the extracted
    topic, as there are some useful bits of code in there for you. Note,
    though, to make it work you will need to invest a little bit of time -
    it is not well-developed enough to simply plug it in and run it.
    
    Also, beware that there is a limit to the performance of the MAKE_UIC
    function that is central to Create User, because it locks up SYSUAF
    for a very short time while it works out and claims the 'top' UIC in
    the group chosen by the user. This has the effect that batch create
    jobs will fail occasionally, while creating the VMS account. There are
    ways round this, discussed elsewhere in this conference, which I will
    outline, if you really want to know.

2535.2A procedure is running at Danish RailwaysCOPCLU::VAGNVagn Eisensee @DMOMon Feb 24 1997 14:2030
      Hi Michel
      
      I wrote a procedure to create ALL-IN-1 users from the DCL interface, 
      which is currently in use at the Danish Railways. Basicly the procedure 
      passes parameters to a slightly modified version of the standard script 
      for user creation in ALL-IN-1 version 3.2. I have included the procedure 
      below. Mail me if you need the script.
