Command Limiting ACFMOUNT

ACFMOUNT command limiting is not a requirement for tape volume access validation. If you use ACFMOUNT command limiting, command entries that are logged or prevented are reported in the Command Limiting Journal (ACFRPTCL).

To implement command limiting for ACFMOUNT, the COMMANDS operand of the CMDLIM VMO record must indicate ACFMOUNT. If you use an INCLUDE list, you must specify ACFMOUNT. If you use an EXCLUDE list, do not specify ACFMOUNT. To write an ACFMOUNT command limiting rule, use the ACF COMPILE subcommand of the CMDLIM setting. See the Command and Diagnose Limiting Guide for more information. The following rule set lets any user with the UID mask beginning with TLC enter the ACFMOUNT 767305 181 WRITE command. Normal masking for command limiting rules applies.
