FREEZE DISKFILE-PATTERN Command
A brief report shows:
FREEZE DISKFILE-PATTERN Command
FREEZE DISKFILE-PATTERN temporarily suspends the access authorities granted to
users on a diskfile pattern ACL. While a diskfile pattern is frozen, only the pattern
owner, an owner on the ACL, the primary owner’s group manager, and the local super
ID can access the pattern. Any other users get a security violation error (file error 48).
An owner of a pattern, the primary owner’s group manager, and the super ID can
freeze a diskfile pattern.
Use THAW DISKFILE-PATTERN to restore all the access authorities that were in effect
before the pattern was frozen.
pattern-spec-list
is the same as the corresponding non-pattern object types. That is, a PATTERN-
SPEC-LIST is a comma-separated list of one or more PATTERN-SPEC attributes. (
pattern-spec [ , pattern-spec ] . . . )
pattern-spec
are the characters that define the p
attern that describe a set of objects. The
PATTERN-SPEC for a diskfile pattern is a fully qualified diskfile name that
contains at least one wildcard in either the subvolume or file name component
that includes the following components:
A volume name, which will include only valid volume characters; that is,
wildcard characters are not part of the pattern, and if present, imply a one-
dimensional search.
A subvolume name, which might include wildcard characters and valid
subvolume characters.
A file name, which might include wildcard characters and valid file name
characters.
WHERE option-list
specifies that only disk files in filename-list that have W
ARNING-MODE set
are to be altered.
