CHGROUP
The CHGROUP command enables you to switch from your current group to
another group within your logon account.
Syntax
CHGROUP [groupname[/grouppass]]
Parameters
groupname Specifies the name of the group that you want to
switch to. If you omit this parameter, you switch
to the home group.
grouppass Specifies the password of the group that you want
to switch to, if the group has a password. If you
want to switch to your home group, you do not need
to provide a password.
Operation Notes
* Usage
You can enter this command from a session or a job, but not from a
program or in break mode. Pressing Break does not affect this
command.
* Command interpreter preservation
This command preserves the entire command interpreter environment
(temporary files, file equations, and variables).
* Password requirements
In a batch job, you must supply a password if a password is
assigned to groupname; otherwise, the job fails and the error
message INCORRECT PASSWORD appears. Similarly, during a session,
you must supply a password if a password is assigned to groupname;
otherwise, the system prompts you for a password.
Examples
* To switch from the current group to your home group, enter:
:CHGROUP
* To switch from the current group to the group called GROUP2,
enter:
:CHGROUP GROUP2
* To switch from the current group to the group called GROUP2 with
the assigned password SECRET, enter:
:CHGROUP GROUP2/SECRET
