a group.
A logical device number must be a numeric value configured on the
system, or an @ sign, that indicates all devices on the system. A device
class name must be configured on the system.
File equations are ignored during resolution of the object name to avoid
having accidental file equation references cause unintentional changes to
an object's access permissions.
MPE Syntax
You can include MPE file name Syntax but not RFA information. If the
object is an MPE Syntax file, its format is:
filename [/ lockword ][. groupname [. acctname ]]
You may specify file lockwords for files protected by active lockwords
unless the objects are also protected by a current ACD. In a batch job, if a
lockword exists on a file, you must specify it. In a session, if a lockword
exists and is omitted, MPE/iX will prompt you for it.
HFS Syntax
You must begin file designators using HFS file name Syntax with either a
dot (.) or a slash (/). The maximum length is 255 characters (including the
"./" or "/").
The
objectname parameter is followed by one of the three type
identifiers
listed below.
FILENAME Indicates that
objectname refers to either a file or
directory. This is the default if a type identifier is not
specified.
LDEV Indicates that
objectname refers to a logical device
number.
DEVCLASS Indicates that
objectname refers to a device class.
ACCESS Optional keyword that indicates a
fileaccess specification follows. This
option affects security at the
file level only. If the file is protected by an
ACD, the ACD overrides the file access mask.
fileaccess File access mask specifications, entered as follows:
{ R L A W X } [,...] : { ANY AC GU AL GL CR } [,...]
The R, L, A, W, and X specify modes of access by types of users (ANY, AC,
GU, AL, GL, CR) as follows:
R = READ
L = LOCK
A = APPEND
W = WRITE
X = EXECUTE
LOCK allows opening the file with dynamic locking option. APPEND
implicitly specifies LOCK. WRITE implicitly specifies APPEND and LOCK. You
