minus-sign (-) form of access-spec.
DISKFILE
specifies DISKFILE as the object type of the ALTER command. Omit it if DISKFILE
is the assumed object type. (For more information on assumed object types, see
the ASSUME Command on page 4-3.)
filename-list
specifies one or more disk files whose existing disk-file-attributes are to
be changed. All disk files specified must already have Safeguard authorization
records (created with the ADD DISKFILE command).
filename-list can be either of:
disk-file-name
( disk-file-name [ , disk-file-name ] ... )
disk-file-name
can be any disk-file name. The name can contain wild-card characters.
LIKE disk-file-name
changes the attribute values of the disk files specified with filename-list to the
same as the existing attribute values for disk-file-name. For the ACCESS
attribute, LIKE only adds ACL entries or adds authorities to existing entries. It does
not replace or delete ACL entries or authorities.
disk-file-name
identifies the disk file whose existing attribute values are to be assigned to the
disk-file authorization record or records being altered. disk-file-name can
be any disk-file name.
disk-file-attribute
changes the existing value of the specified disk file attribute for the disk file or files
being altered. The disk file attributes are:
OWNER [owner-id]
ACCESS access-spec [ ; access-spec ] ...
LICENSE {ON|OFF}
PROGID {ON|OFF}
ALTER DISKFILE filename-list [ , ]
{ LIKE disk-file-name | disk-file-attribute }
