Is there has "Signoff Exit Point"

[Hei]

Dear all,

I would like to write a program to disable or change password of some
specified user profile when the specified user is signing off. The
best way I think is to register the program to the "Signoff Exit
Point" if there has such exit point. Unfortunately, I can't found it.

So did anyone knows whether AS/400 has such similar function / exit
point, or whether and how I can add such exit point?

Thank you very much,
Happy New Year,
Hei

Use WRKREGINF command to find these:

QIBM_QSY_CHG_PROFILE CHGP0100 *YES Change User Profile -
after c
QIBM_QSY_CHG_PROFILE CHGP0200 *YES Change User Profile -
before

You will have to have your own exit program written.

Not sure if these will work or not. You could always run CL against
the signoff command I guess as well once it was envoked.

Exit point . . . . . . . . . . . . . . : QIBM_QWT_JOBNOTIFY
Exit point format . . . . . . . . . . : NTFY0100
Text description . . . . . . . . . . . : Job Notification

That may be a bit overkill for a single specific instance. Not sure
from the comments just what the full requirements are. But if this is
for a temporary signon into an interactive subsystem, a request program,
routing program, initial program, commitment control notify object,
either alone or in combination may be able to effect the change.

I know in the past some have effectively replaced the QSYS/SIGNOFF
command; take care in any method to effect that... read up on past
experiences, and any updates to methods of effecting; e.g. use of the
QIBM_QCA_CHG_COMMAND versus an alternate QSYS in *SYSLIBL et al, like in

hi Jacko,

Thanks for your input, but this is the change user profile exit point.
I was use this to check whether it is default password when admin
reset someone's p/w, but not work in this case.

Thanks anyway.

Hi CRPence,

Thanks for your information, this exit point is useful, but seems I
need a monitor job together with this exit point. The problem is the
monitor job can easily be killed by operator to prevent what I want to
do (disable the specified user).

I was also considered to replace the signoff command, but what if the
user not use the signoff command to quit? The user can simply power
off the terminal or terminate the 5250 session without signoff.

Because this the the audit related program, I will need to consider
any possible breakthough actions, and seems these are not the best
chioce in this moment.

Thanks,
Hei

Review the possible use of the Send Scope Message (QMHSNDSM) API in your
'monitor' program:

http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/infocenter/iseries/v5r4/index.jsp?topic=/apis/QMHSNDSM.htm

When your monitor job starts, it can send a message scoped to *JOB. The
message can then be processed whenever the job is ended. The scope
handling program can decide whether to restart the monitor job or not.
E.g., it would restart the monitor unless the system was being ended or
other reasons that you choose.
