System Data Item Descriptions
For a UNIX LINC System , user names must be in your password file. The superuser
usercode has a user name of spaces.
GLB.USER is not implemented in LDA Run Time.
GLB.USER can be used for Shadow Reports, in the form GLB.USERx, where x is the
one-character Shadow Report designator (A through Z).
Once output from a Report has been produced, the value of GLB.USER remains as it is
until the next RELEASE; command or end-of-job. At that point, the most recent change to
GLB.USER then applies.
GLB.USER has a default value of spaces.

(When identifying MCP based Terminal Printer Spooler users, only the first 10 characters
of GLB.USER are used.)
GLB.USERCODE
GLB.USERCODE is a read-only System Data item that can be accessed in Ispec logic to
identify the current user sign-on identifier, as follows:
$ MCP based usercode
$ OS 2200 based userid
$ UNIX user name
$ Network user id (in LDA Run Time)

GLB.VERSIONID
GLB.VERSIONID is a read-only System Data item related to version control. It contains a
short description of the current version of the LINC System, as entered on the Change
Control Options screen for the LINC Specification.
Note: For an MCP based LINC System only, if your latest generate has only compiled
Subsystems in which there have been some Ispec changes, current version
information will only be applied to those Subsystems that have been compiled.
Before generating, mark all Subsystems for generate in order to propagate the
latest version information across your whole system.
GLB.VERSIONID is not implemented in LDA Run Time.
