Replication of Internal CA Datacom Datadictionary Security Levels

CA Datacom Datadictionary internal security uses the SECLVL= parameter of the System Resource Table (SRT) to indicate the level of security desired. These levels of security are represented by options 0 through 4. For more information, see Planning for CA Datacom Datadictionary Security.

If your external security package allows you to use fixed-position character substitution, or "wildcards," when defining resource names, you can reduce the number of resource definitions when replicating a CA Datacom Datadictionary security level. These wildcards are represented by cc, ccc, or cccc in the following examples. If the product allows variable character substitution, or "masking," you can use it as appropriate in place of wildcards. If the product does not use wild cards or masking you must specify each combination of entity-type, status, and function. CA Datacom Datadictionary rules cannot be overridden by using the substitution or patterning techniques in an external security product.
