Safeguard Pattern Configuration
access evaluation based on the Safeguard global configuration attribute
COMBINATION-DISKFILE values FIRST-ACL, FIRST-RULE, and ALL.
Table
9-3 describes CHECK-DISKFILE-PATTERN settings when it is set to MID and
the Direction-Diskfile is set to Volume-First. In this case DISKFILE-PATTERN ACL is
evaluated after VOLUME and SUBVOLUME ACL evaluation. If the DISKFILE-
PATTERN ACL evaluation results in NORECORD, Normal ACL evaluates DISKFILE
ACL. The first column indicates the VOLUME ACL setting, the second column
indicates the SUBVOLUME ACL setting, and the third column indicates the DISKFILE
PATTERN setting. The last three columns depict the final access evaluation based on
Table 9-2. CHECK-DISKFILE-PATTERN settings when value is MID and Direction
Diskfile is Filename-First

Y - ACL evaluates a YES
N - ACL evaluates a NO
NR - No ACL exists (NORECORD)
NM - ACL contains no mention
Permit - Access permitted
Deny - Access Denied
Normal - Normal ACL evaluation for SUBVOL and VOLUME
Note. The MID option is supported only on systems running J06.08 and later J-series RVUs
and H06.19 and later H-series RVUs.
