Simply copying MAINT's CP directory entry isn't the right thing to do... You'd have all minidisks in overlap. ready to be destroyed...
What do you use MAINT for. Most probably you don't need MAINT for these tasks - some CP commands need special PRIV classes, so if you give these classes to "xyz" you are all set. - for SW maintenance, you probably continue to use MAINT. But, even there you could use other userids. - to use product services (like DIRMAINT), you must be authorized in the product itself 2010/11/15 Wandschneider, Scott <scott.wandschnei...@infocrossing.com> > Do you have DIRMAINT?
