Safeguard Configuration Record
ZPATAUTHZSPEC
displays the pattern-spec of a pattern protection record used in determining the
object access authorization.
ZPATAUTHZMETHOD
indicates the method used to determine the outcome.
ZPATREDUCTIONLEVEL
indicates the number of search levels used to arrive at a null or unique pattern.
Possible values are:
ZSFG-VAL-REDLVL-INITIAL
indicates that the initial search for a pattern resulted in an empty or unique
result. A unique result cannot occur when a pattern contains a wildcard. The
first level of searching examines the first non-wildcard characters for a match.
ZSFG-VAL-REDLVL-COLLATION
indicates that the selected pattern was found by reducing the search set by
using the first pattern in the collating sequence. The second level of searching
is triggered when the first level (REDLVL-INITIAL) gets a match, then that
match is then sent to the pattern matching algorithm. The REDLVL-
COLLATION method indicates that at least one first level match was sent to
pattern matching.
ZPATAUTHZRESULT
indicates the result of the pattern search. Possible values are GRANTED,
NORECORD, and DENIED.
ZPATTSSTART
indicates when the pattern search began.
ZPATTSEND
indicates when the pattern search ended.
Safeguard Configuration Record
The Safeguard subsystem maintains a record of its own configuration attributes. Any
attempt to change the configuration is audited, resulting in a pair of secondary
records—one to show the configuration before the attempt and one to show the
attempted change to the configuration. This information is represented by a ZSFG-
DDL-CONFIG-SUBREC variant of the ZTEXT-AREA field in secondary audit records.
