Rules for profile selection

The following table shows how a PROFILE name is selected.

A user can be associated with multiple profiles. If the E21 exit is used to provide profile name(s) then only those profile name(s) will be used. For IBM Session Manager 3.1.00 and higher, the ISZE21PH exit script supports multiple profiles. For prior releases of IBM Session Manager, only a single profile may be supplied by the E21 exit.

The system can be configured to use an External Security Manager to determine users' allocated Profiles (see the 'Defining security' chapter in the Installation and Customization manual).
