SP Set Standard Protection Attributes for new PLAM Elements

Note:

LMS Version >= 2.0 and BS2000 >= 10.0 are prerequisites for setting standard protection attributes of new PLAM library elements as described below.

SPSTD Set Protection Standard. The protection attributes (BACL's) of the library element marked with the SPSTD Action Code will be used as the standard protection attributes for all new elements in that PLAM library.

These standard protection attributes do not apply to t/ type elements for which a protection attribute can be defined specificly (see below, Action Code SPt/). The standard protection attributes also do not apply to elements copied from another library with the CS (Copy Same) Action Code, nor to those copied with the Variable Action ONXADD.. ,CPR (Copy Protection).

The standard protection attributes currently valid can be displayed with the LA Action Code (Library Attributes, see page 6-).

SP t/ Set Protection for Type t. The protection attributes (BACL's) for the library element marked with the SP Action Code will be used as the standard protection attributes for all new type t elements in the library. If Write, Read, or Exec passwords are defined for the specified library, then these will not be transfered to the element.

SPN t/ The standard protection attributes for new elements of the specified type in this library are reset. The type-independent standard protection attributes remain as defined previously.

SPN The standard protection attributes for new elements in the library are reset. The type-dependent standard protection attributes remain as defined previously .

Notes:

If Write, Read or Exec passwords are defined for the library marked with the Action Code, these will be requested before processing the Action Code, and will be transfered as entered to the standard protection.

If the standard protection attributes for a PLAM library are defined or amended with an SP.. Action Code, the following additional checks are made by CFS: Is the library cataloged as SHARE=YES ? If so: is a Basic Access Control List or a Full Access Control List defined for the library? If not, the BACL attributes OWNER/GROUP/OTHERS are set to READ/WRITE/EXEC. This ensures that the file may not be copied.
