NAME Keyword—Associate ACID with a Name

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

Use the NAME keyword to associate the ACID with a name for further identification.

The NAME field is provided for reporting and documentation purposes. CA Top Secret displays the NAME field as part of message TSS7000I when a user signs on to a facility. NAME is also displayed in the TSSUTIL report for initiation or signon records.

This keyword has the following format:

TSS CREATE(acid) NAME([']character name[']) ...

The NAME keyword may contain from one to 32 characters.

The entire name must be delimited by single quotes if it contains blanks, lower case, or special characters.

If the name contains an apostrophe ('), use two single quotes within the name; for example: NAME('Patrick O''Neil').

If the name contains special characters such as '^' and '~', in order for them to display, set control option OPTIONS(73 or 16) and run TSS LIST via TSSCFILE or CA Top Secret Workstation Option. Without OPTIONS (73 or 16) set, the entire contents of the NAME field are automatically uppercased.
