IEB575A
SPECIFY SECURITY FOR DSNAME=dsname, JOB=jjj, ON ddd

Explanation

A diskette writer has been started to write secure data sets on the device. The data set for the job indicated requires the operator to specify the security parameters.

In the message text:
dsname
The data set name.
jjj
The job name.
ddd
The device indicated.

System action

Wait for the operator response, and continue processing.

Operator response

Specify the security parameters for the data set with the jobname as requested by the programmer. The general form of the reply is:

REPLY xx,‘YYMMDD,w,d,v’

YYMMDD is the expiration date that the data set can be purged.
w
is the write protect indicator to indicate that the data set is write protected. This must be a blank or ‘P’.
d
is the one character data set security indicator. To secure a data set, both the data set security and volume accessibility indicators must be set.
v
is the one character accessibility indicator. This secures the volume from unauthorized access.

If a parameter is not to be specified, the comma should be entered to denote the missing parameters. r xx,‘741231,,,x’ indicates the expiration date and volume accessibility. r xx,‘,P’ specifies write protection.

All data sets get a minimum of one day date protection and sequence number protection. When extended security is used while processing in multi-data sets per diskette mode, the volume accessibility indicator must be specified for the first data set to be secured and cannot be specified for any other data sets on that diskette.

Programmer response

Notify the operator of the level of data set security required for the data set with the jobname.
