DAYS Keyword with ACIDs—Restrict Access by Day

Valid on z/OS, z/VM, and z/VSE.

Use the DAYS keyword to restrict access to a specific day(s) of the week.

This keyword has the following format:

TSS ADDTO(acid) resource(prefix) 
                FACILITY(facility name)
                DAYS(day‑list)

day‑list

Composed of one or more of the following entries for the days of the week:

• MON—Monday
• TUE—Tuesday
• WED—Wednesday
• THU—Thursday
• FRI—Friday
• SAT—Saturday
• SUN—Sunday
• WEEKDAYS—Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday
• WEEKENDS—Saturday and Sunday

If the DAYS keyword is omitted, CA Top Secret allows access on every day of the week.

This keyword is used with:

• The commands ADDTO, PERMIT, REPLACE and REVOKE
• The ACID types User, DCA, VCA, ZCA, LSCA, SCA, MSCA, and ALL Record

Examples: DAYS keyword

This example gives user MICHVCA the ability to access the TSO facility on Monday and Tuesday:

TSS ADDTO(MICHVCA) FACILITY(TSO)
                   DAYS(MON,TUE)

This example changes the DAYS attribute on MICHVCA's access to the TSO facility from Monday and Tuesday to Wednesday and Thursday:

TSS REPLACE(MICHVCA) FACILITY(TSO)
                     DAYS(MON,TUE,WED,THU)

This example removes all access to the TSO facility from MICHVCA:

TSS REMOVE(MICHVCA) FACILITY(TSO)

You cannot remove the DAYS keyword from a facility, remove the facility from the ACID.
