Configuring user authorization (Security file)
IBM Workload Scheduler manages security through the use of a configuration file, the security file. In the security file, you specify which scheduling objects a user can manage and how. You define these settings by writing user definitions. A user definition is an association between a name and a set of users, the objects they can access, and the actions they can perform on the specified objects.
For more detailed information about the security file, security file syntax, and how to configure the security file, see Configuring user authorization (Security file).
