Individual Rule Entries

You must specify individual resource rule entries after the control statements in the rule set. These entries identify the environment and access permissions when you can access a resource. A rule entry can extend up to 72 positions. Get into the practice of starting rule entries in the second column to avoid treating a rule entry as a comment when that entry begins with an asterisk. Like control statements, a rule entry continues unconditionally from one statement to the next when a blank space followed by a dash (-) appears at the end of a line. If a dash appears at the end of a rule entry and the next line contains a comment, CA ACF2 for VM assumes the comment is a continuation of the rule entry.
