ADD VOLUME and SUBVOLUME Commands
ADD VOLUME creates one or more volume authorization records. ADD SUBVOLUME
creates one or more subvolume authorization records. After an authorization record is
created for a volume or subvolume, all attempts to create a disk file on the volume or
subvolume are subject to a Safeguard authorization check and, optionally, to
Safeguard auditing.
By default, only a local super group user can add a volume authorization record, but
any local user can add a subvolume authorization record. For more information, see
SUBVOLUME on page 12-2 and VOLUME on page 12-2.
You can use SET VOLUME or SET SUBVOLUME to establish a set of default attribute
values. Then use either ADD VOLUME or ADD SUBVOLUME to name the volume or
subvolume to which the default attribute values are to be applied. You can also specify
values for volume or subvolume attributes in your ADD command. The current default
values are used for any attributes not specified in the ADD command.
