Using Commands to Define Other File Structures
Security for MPE, KSAM, and VPLUS Files
Security as defined and used for IMAGE databases is not applicable to MPE files, KSAM
files, and VPLUS forms files. For these files "lockwords" are used for protection. The
CREATE command is used to define a security class for the lockword. In the Dictionary,
the lockword for the file is called the PASSWORD. After a class is created for the lockword,
the ADD CLASS-FILE command string is used to associate the security class with the file.
To display the security class entries, use either the LIST or DISPLAY command. If you
want to delete an entry from the Dictionary, use the PURGE command. To change the
entry, the MODIFY command or the RENAME command is used.
