This command removes security provisions from
a file. Security does not resume for
a released file until you enter the SECURE command for the file.
Syntax | |
Parameters | |
- filereference
Specifies the actual file designator of the file whose file access matrix access control you want to disable. The filereference can be either in MPE or HFS syntax. MPE Syntax If the filereference does not begin with a dot or a slash, it is parsed according to the MPE syntax and has the form:
filename[/lockword][.groupname[.acctname]]
|
If the file has a lockword, you must specify it;
otherwise, the system prompts you for it.
If you do not specify groupname.acctname, the system assumes the logon group
and account. HFS Syntax If the filename begins with a dot (.) or a slash (/), it is parsed according to HFS syntax.
Operation Notes | |
Usage You can enter this command from a session, a job, a program, or in break
mode. Pressing Break does not affect this command. You can use this command only for permanent disk files you have created.
Under default system security provisions, the
file must be in your logon account and must belong to your logon or
home group. Checking the file status You can enter the LISTFILE
command to determine if a file is currently released or secured. Refer to the
LISTFILE command for more information. Access control definition An access control definition (ACD) overrides file access controls whether
or not you have released or secured the file. For more information about ACDs, refer to the ALTSEC command in this
manual. Unaffected access controls This command does not affect the following access controls: - Privileged files
You cannot release privileged files.
- Lockwords
You cannot override lockwords.
- ACDs
This command does not affect the security on files with access control definitions. However, if you remove the ACD, the file is released. Refer to the ALTSEC command in this book for more information
about ACDs.
