CVTOBJAUT       CONVERT OBJECT AUTHORITY               TAASETV

The   Convert  Object   Authority  command   creates   an  outfile   of
authorities for  one or more objects  in a library.  The  model file is
QAOBJAUT  (same as used  by DSPOBJAUT).  The  outfile is always OBJAUTP
with a format  name of QSYDSAUT.   The system command DSPOBJAUT  allows
output for a single object.

A typical command would be;

             CVTOBJAUT  OBJ(LIB1/*ALL) OBJTYPE(*JOBD)
                          OUTLIB(QTEMP)

One  record for  each authority  for each  *JOBD type  object  found in
LIB1  would be output  to OBJAUTP in  QTEMP.  Note that  there would be
more records  than  the number  of *JOBD  objects  because there  is  a
record output for each user that is authorized.

----------------------------

   OBJ           The   qualified  name   of   the   object  to   output
                 authorities  for.   A  single or  generic  object name
                 may  be  specified   or  the   special  values   *ALL,
                 *ALLUSR, or *IBM.

                 A single library must be specified.

   OBJTYPE       The  object  type  to  be  selected.     *ALL  is  the
                 default.   Use the prompter for  the supported values.

   ASPDEV        The name of the ASP device to be used.

                 *  is the default meaning  the ASPs that are currently
                 part of the library name space.

                 *SYSBAS may  be specified meaning  the system ASP  and
                 all basic user ASPs.

                 A specific ASP name may be entered.

   OUTLIB        The  library where  the OBJAUTP  file will  be written
                 to.    *LIBL is  the  default.   If  the  OBJAUTP file
                 cannot be found, a specific library must be named.

   OUTMBR        The  member  to  be  written  to.    OBJAUTP  is   the
                 default.

   REPLACE       A  *YES/*NO value  for whether  the  member should  be
                 cleared before  writing records into it.   The default
                 is *YES.

                 *NO may  be  specified  to  add  records  to  existing
                 data.
