TIMEREC Access

Available access levels are determined by the RDT resource class being permitted. If ACCESS is not specified, CA Top Secret defaults to READ access.

The administrator can use any of the following methods to control access to TIME records: Expiration, Facility, and Actions.

The administrator can specify any or all of the access levels associated with a particular resource. For example, a data set would have the following access levels: ALL, CREATE, CONTROL, FETCH, NONE, READ, SCRATCH, UPDATE, and WRITE.

Example: TIMEREC keyword

TSS ADDTO(SDT) TIMEREC(TEMP1)

This example permits a user to update a data set with a prefix of SFT and using a department's TIME record named TIME1:

TSS PERMIT(USR01) DSNAME(SFT.)
                  ACCESS(ALL)
                  TIMEREC(TIME1)

This example revokes access:

TSS REVOKE(USR01) DSNAME(SFT.)
