Requestcode Values

This function call verifies that the current user has access to a generalized resource. The requestcode argument specifies the type of access to be verified. If you omit this argument, OPS/REXX uses the default value R (Read access).

For CA ACF2 systems, the request code can have one of the following values:

Code

Description

R

Verify Read access to resource

A

Verify Add access to resource

Code

RESOURCE NOT PROTECTED

RESOURCE ACCESS DENIED
