Specifying object types

Specify one or more object types that the user or users in the associated user definition is authorized to access. If you specify the object type but no attributes, the authorized actions defined for the user with the access keyword apply to all the objects of that type defined in the HCL Workload Automation domain. If an object type from the following list is omitted for a user or users, no objects of that type can be accessed.

The object types are the following:
action
Actions defined in scheduling event rules
calendars
User calendars
cpu
Workstations, domains and workstation classes
event
Event conditions in scheduling event rules
eventrule
Scheduling event rule definitions
file
HCL Workload Automation database file

Note: Starting from version 8.5, the parameter object type is reserved for parameters created and managed in a local parameter database with the parms utility command, while authorization to act on global variables is managed using the vartable object type. For this reason, when the security file is migrated from previous versions to 8.5, a vartable security definition for the default variable table is added to match each parameter definition found, as part of the upgrade process documented in the HCL Workload Automation: Planning and Installation Guide.
