BIND NEW PACKAGE field (BINDNV subsystem parameter)
The BINDNV subsystem parameter controls whether BIND or BINDADD authority is to be required for a user to bind a new version of an existing package.
| Acceptable values: | BINDADD, BIND |
|---|---|
| Default: | BINDADD |
| Update: | option 39 on panel DSNTIPB |
| DSNZPxxx: | DSN6SPRM BINDNV |
| Security parameter: | Yes |
If you accept the default, BINDADD, only users with the BINDADD system privilege are allowed to create a new package. If you specify BIND, users with the BIND privilege on a package or collection are allowed to create a new version of an existing package when they bind it. Users with PACKADM authority are also allowed to add a new package or a new version of a package to a collection.
Note: This is a security-related parameter. When this
parameter is set to BIND, the BINDADD privilege check is bypassed,
and a user with PACKADM authority can create new packages.
