SPYABLE

Description

Specifies whether or not users can be spied upon.

This common end-user parameter is applicable to these control statements: SYSTEM (see SYSTEM statement), PROFILE (see PROFILE statement), USER (see USER statement), and TERMINAL (see TERMINAL statement).

Format

SPYABLE [TELL|Yes|No|ON|OFF]

Default: SPYABLE TELL

Usage

SPYABLE TELL specifies that all users may be spied upon, provided that the user being spied upon accepts the spy operation. SPYABLE TELL also causes a message to be sent to the target user when the spy operation is terminated.

SPYABLE TELL is a prerequisite for the SPYOFF command, which is documented in the Technical Reference manual.

SPYABLE=Yes specifies that all users may be spied upon without the need for acceptance of the spy operation. SPYABLE=No prevents a user from being spied upon.

Note: A shared user is not SPYABLE. Use SPY LU if sharing users; for details, see 'SPY operator command' in the Technical Reference manual.
