CA VM:Secure creates minidisks for a new entry based on MDISK and MDOPT statements in the skeleton or input file from which it builds the user ID’s directory entry.
MDISK statements define minidisks. MDOPT statements are special CA VM:Secure statements used to define options for minidisks. MDOPT statements precede MDISK statements; CA VM:Secure applies the options specified on an MDOPT statement to all MDISK statements that follow that statement until CA VM:Secure encounters an MDOPT statement with different options. In this way, the issuing user ID can specify unique options for each minidisk. If CA VM:Secure does not find an MDOPT statement in the skeleton or input file, it uses options specified on the ADDENTRY command and default values described in MDOPT Statements.
When ADDENTRY executes, CA VM:Secure passes the values specified on the command line, the MDISK statements, and the MDOPT statements to the ADDMDISK command, which creates the minidisks. Before it places the new directory entry in the source directory; CA VM:Secure replaces the MDISK statements in the entry with the actual MDISK statements that define the new minidisks and removes the MDOPT statements.
Only the ADDENTRY and REPENTRY commands recognize MDISK and MDOPT statements in skeleton or input files. Other CA VM:Secure commands that create user IDs from skeleton or input files ignore them.
