Data Set Selection Prefix Profile Definition Using ADDTO

The ADDTO command has the following format for defining prefix data set selection profiles:

TSS ADDTO(department) CA@BES(DSN.data_set_prefix)
TSS

Indicates a CA Top Secret command.

ADDTO

Specifies the ADDTO command. The short form of this command is ADD.

department

Specifies the department name that owns the BES resources.

CA@BES

Specifies the general resource class for CA Tape Encryption. This is always CA@BES for data set selection profiles.

DSN

Indicates the entity is a data set selection profile.

data_set_prefix

Specifies a 26-character data set selection prefix name.

Example: Add discrete data set selection prefix profile

This example uses the CA Top Secret command ADDTO to define discrete data set selection profiles to CA@BES. Because the actual data set name is less than 26 characters, the entire data set name can be defined.

TSS ADDTO(BESDEPT) CA@BES(DSN.SYS2.PROD.BACKUP.FILE)
