Re: Copying users over the nodes
Thanks for the reply..
I need to replicate the rights identifier, and the additional identifiers also. Can I move the SYSUAF.DAT and RIGHTSLIST.DAT FROM OPEN VMS 7.1 on VAX to OPEN VMS 7.3-1 on ALPHA?

Re: Copying users over the nodes
You can add the identifier for a users UIC value with
ADD/ID/USER=username
in authorize.
Other identifiers - I find it easier to add and grant them. The identifier values can be different on different nodes.
The file structure of RIGHTLIST.DAT is more complicated than SYSUAF so I don't know if doing a similar trick in DCL will work.

Re: Copying users over the nodes
in older times, not knowing much about record management, I've created some procedures to read output file from $ MCR AUTHORIZE SHOW USER * /FULL and convert it to Authorize commands to create new accounts. Advantage of it is, that you have also Ident. information in this output. Just proxy is missing. You can do it separately.
But you have to have the same UIC for a user and identifiers on all nodes. It's a good practice indeed. Otherwise, SYSUAF.DAT gets a bit messy.
I assume, the same can be done by reading directly from SYSUAF.DAT, NET$PROXY.DAT and RIGHTSLIST.DAT , but didn't do it yet.

Re: Copying users over the nodes
Re: Identifiers.
We have long ago learned to add identifiers NOT by just UAF>ADD/ID
OLD::UAF>SHO /ID xxx also gives the value, either in UIC format [x,y], or in INTEGER format %Xnnnnnnnn, with nnnnnnnn > %X80000000
New::UAF>ADD/ID xxx /VAL=UIC:[x,y]
where y may be * to specify a groupname ident, in which case the /ATTRIB=RESOURCE will be appropriate.
or
NEW::UAF> ADD/ID xxx /VAL=ID:%Xmmmmmmmm, with %Xmmmmmmmm = %Xnnnnnnnn - %X80000000
This gives two big advantages:
-- A file copy by BACKUP/OWN=ORIG maintains file ownership and access BY NUMERIC VALUE, and so, ONLY if the numeric values are identical, the ownerships and accessibilities are kept consistent
-- If ever in the future those systems are to be integrated, ownerships are protections are already synchronous.
And if you EVER have to merge some systems, you will know what a PITA it can be if they are not!
hth,
Proost.
Have one on me.

Re: Copying users over the nodes
It might not be able to do the entire job for you, but it could perhaps do a good bit of the work and tell about, e.g., conflicts that it can't resolve.
Just a suggestion if anyone's listening who'd like to write it. Given time, I would write it. But like most busy systems staff I seldom have time to work on significant code of my own any more. :-(

Re: Copying users over the nodes
Re: Galen
Wouldn't it be nice if we had an application (from HP or the user community) that could assist with merging SYSUAF, RIGHTSLIST, proxies, etc.?
I have written such a beast. When I find the time I'll put it (VMSINSTAL kits) on my website ( www.quadratrix.be ).

Kris (aka Qkcl)

Re: Copying users over the nodes
I tried to do it from DCL as Ian recomended in the first reply, but getting the following error when trying to write to the remote file-
%DCL-W-TKNOVF, command element is too long - shorten
And actually no record found for the user name at the remote end.
