DD Internal Security › CA Datacom Datadictionary Security Features › Security Level

Security Level

Security level is defined on a systemwide basis and defines the ultimate level of security needed at your site. It is determined by the SECLVL= parameter in the System Resource Table as defined in CA Datacom Datadictionary Security Model. We recommend limited access to the System Resource Table macro.

In addition, you can use passwords and locks to restrict functions that can be performed on an entity-occurrence definition. If you assign a password to a definition, this password must be specified before performing maintenance on the definition.

Use locks to deny maintenance or access of any kind to the entity-occurrence definition. If you assign a lock, specify the correct override code for your site to perform any maintenance or gain access to the definition.

Note: For more information about using passwords and locks, see the CA Datacom Datadictionary User Guide.
