NOVOLCHK Keyword—Bypass Volume Level Checking

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

Use the NOVOLCHK keyword to allow an ACID to bypass volume level security checking. Auditing will occur.

Note: NOVOLCHK does not necessarily give access to data sets on the volume. Administrators must enter the NODSNCHK keyword along with NOVOLCHK to allow total access to an entire volume when individual data sets are also being accessed.

This keyword has the following format:

TSS ADDTO(acid) NOVOLCHK

This keyword is used with:

• The commands CREATE, ADDTO, and REMOVE
• The ACID types User, Profile, DCA, VCA, ZCA, LSCA, SCA, and MSCA
• MISC9(BYPASS) authority

Examples: NOVOLCHK keyword

This example assigns the NOVOLCHK attribute to an ACID within his scope:

TSS ADDTO(USER01) NOVOLCHK

This example allows use of volumes that are not globally allowed for data set creation:

TSS ADDTO(USER01) NOVOLCHK 
                  NODSNCHK

This example removes the NOVOLCHK attribute:

TSS REMOVE(USER01) NOVOLCHK
