Specifying a Procedure Name

The STC PROCNAME operand specifies either:

An exact procedure library member name
A prefix which specifies the initial characters of a matching procedure library member

When the O/S console command START proc1 is entered, CA Top Secret searches the STC Special Record:

If an exact match is found, the STC PROCNAME assigns the security attributes of the "proc1" STC entry to the expanded JCL which JES supplies from its procedure libraries. If this example had been previously added to the STC, SMURF is assigned to the started task which JES assigned to the START command:
```
TSS ADD(STC) PROCNAME(PROC1)
             ACID(SMURF).
```
If no exact match is found, but one or more prefixes in the STC Record are found, CA Top Secret assigns the STC characteristics of the entry which matches the largest number of initial characters in the START command procedure. In these examples, the best match for START PROC1 is the third entry. ACID STAR4 is assigned to the started task
```
TSS ADD(STC) PROCNAME(P*)
             ACID(STAR)
```
```
TSS ADD(STC) PROCNAME(PRO*)
             ACID(STAR3)
```
```
TSS ADD(STC) PROCNAME(PROC*)
             ACID(STAR4)
```
If no procedure or prefix in the STC record is available, the product searches for a DEFAULT pseudo PROCNAME in the STC record. CA Top Secret makes it possible to assign a number of different action outcomes to DEFAULT assignments. In this example, a procedure which does not match an exact procedure or prefix fails.
```
TSS ADD(STC) PROCNAME(DEFAULT)
             ACID(FAIL) 
```
If no DEFAULT PROCNAME has been provided on the STC, the administrator can supply an STC FACILITY DEFACID. For information, see the Control Options Guide.
