Basic Rule Set Structure

A key that is the full name of a CP command identifies a command limiting rule set. For example, the command limiting rule set shown below applies to the CP SPOOL command:

  A $KEY(SPOOL) MDLTYPE(530)
 
  B CON PURGE UID(****OPR) LOG
 
  C CON START UID(****OPR) ALLOW
 
  D PRT COPY - ALLOW
 
  E PRT RSCS ALLOW

A

Specifies the full name of the CP command the rule set applies to.

B

Logs each time OPR issues a SPOOL CONSOLE PURGE command.

C

Lets OPR issue a SPOOL CONSOLE START command.

D

Lets all users issue a SPOOL PRT COPIES nnn command. The dash (-) after the COPY operand says that you can specify any number of copies. You could have included a value in the rule entry if you wanted to limit the number of copies a user could print (for example, COPY 5).

E

Lets all users issue a SPOOL PRT RSCS command to send printed output through the Remote Spooling Communications Subsystem (RSCS).
