SET DAY

Sets the default day type specified in the user authorization file (UAF) for the current day.

Requires OPER (operator) privilege.


Format

SET DAY


Parameters

None.

Description

The SET DAY command overrides the default primary and secondary day types that are used to control daily logins. These default day types are defined by the system manager in the user authorization file (UAF).

The SET DAY command is useful when you need to override the day type because of a change in the work days of a particular week. For example, Monday, which is normally a work day, is occasionally a holiday. You can use the SET DAY command to override the normal day type for Monday and set it to a different day type.


Qualifiers

/DEFAULT

Overrides any previous SET DAY specification and specifies that the normal UAF defaults are to be used to determine today's day type.

/LOG

/NOLOG (default)

Controls whether log information is displayed at the terminal to confirm that the new SET DAY information has been set.

/PRIMARY

Sets today until midnight to a primary day.

/SECONDARY

Sets today until midnight to a secondary day.

#2

$ SET DAY/DEFAULT
