A

Indicates the prefix area for this screen. The prefix area is where you select rules or enter information.

This screen contains only summary information of the different rule entries. Enter an S (for SELECT) in the prefix area to go to the next screen and see all of the details for rule you selected.

Resource type

Specifies the three‑character type code that defines the type of resource this rule set protects.

Rulekey

Specifies the $KEY value of the rule set. The $KEY control statement supplies the name of the resource that this rule was written for. A resource rule name can represent many different objects, depending on the resource TYPE.
CA ACF2 for VM‑defined type codes are ACT, ALG, GRP, DIA, IUC, and VMC For more information, see the “About Resource Rules” chapter. For example, for DIA, the $KEY rule ID is the ID of a user in the VM directory that another user wants to dial to. For ACT, the $KEY rule ID is an eight‑character account code that you define. The rule ID can be up to 40 characters long. However, for most CA ACF2 for VM‑defined resource types, only the first eight characters are significant. You can mask this field with standard CA ACF2 for VM masking characters.

UID

Specifies the User Identification string of the user that the rule was written for.

ACCESS

Specifies the access privileges that this user has. Valid access privileges are:

ALLOW

Allow access to the resource.

LOG

Allow access, but record the action.

PREVENT

Do not allow access.
