Controlling the default reply to the query governor inquiry message

The system administrator can control whether the interactive user has the option of ignoring the database query inquiry message by using the CHGJOB CL command as follows:

• If a value of *DFT is specified for the INQMSGRPY parameter of the CHGJOB CL command, the interactive user does not see the inquiry messages and the query is canceled immediately.
• If a value of *RQD is specified for the INQMSGRPY parameter of the CHGJOB CL command, the interactive user sees the inquiry and must reply to the inquiry.
• If a value of *SYSRPYL is specified for the INQMSGRPY parameter of the CHGJOB CL command, a system reply list is used to determine whether the interactive user sees the inquiry and whether a reply is necessary. For more information on the *SYSRPYL parameter, see the CL command information in the Programming category of the AS/400 Information Center. The system reply list entries can be used to customize different default replies based on user profile name, user id, or process names. The fully qualified job name is available in the message data for inquiry message CPA4259. This will allow the keyword CMPDTA to be used to select the system reply list entry that applies to the process or user profile. The user profile name is 10 characters long and starts at position 51. The process name is 10 character long and starts at position 27.
• The following example will add a reply list element that will cause the default reply of C to cancel any requests for jobs whose user profile is 'QPGMR'.
