Activating enhanced generic naming for the DATASET class (EGN option) z/OS Security Server RACF Security Administrator's Guide SA23-2289-00 |
|
If you have the SPECIAL attribute, you
can activate enhanced generic naming for the DATASET class by issuing
the SETROPTS command with the EGN operand:
When you activate this option, RACF® allows
you to specify the generic character ** (in addition
to the generic characters * and %)
when you define any of the following:
Note that enhanced generic naming changes the meaning of the generic character * for generic data set profiles. (SETROPTS EGN has no effect on general resource profiles.) In addition, a generic profile such as hlq.* defined while SETROPTS NOEGN is in effect, will appear as hlq.*.** when listed after EGN is activated. For information on specifying profile names with enhanced generic naming, see z/OS Security Server RACF Command Language Reference. To deactivate enhanced generic naming for the DATASET class, issue the SETROPTS command with the NOEGN operand. Guideline: Do not deactivate enhanced generic naming after data set profiles have been created while enhanced generic naming was active. NOEGN is in effect when a RACF database is first initialized using IRRMIN00. |
