Defining limit values and access rights

Systems support defines user-specific limit values and access rights for a pubset with the ADD-USER and MODIFY-USER-ATTRIBUTES commands.

Operands for limit values:

• PUBLIC-SPACE-LIMIT and PUBLIC-SPACE-EXCESS

  Determines the maximum storage space which the user may occupy on the pubset. PUBLIC-SPACE-EXCESS specifies whether this limit may under certain circumstances be exceeded.

• TEMP-SPACE-LIMIT

  Determines the maximum storage space which the user may occupy on the pubset for temporary files.

• JV-NUMBER-LIMIT

  Maximum number of job variables which the user may create.

• FILE-NUMBER-LIMIT

  Maximum number of files which the user may create.

Operands for access rights:

• DMS-TUNING-RESOURCES
  Defines whether a user is allowed to use tuning resources for file processing. The pubset caches and high level storage classes are tuning resources.

• PHYSICAL-ALLOCATION
  Defines whether a user can request storage space directly by specifying the volume set, volume or block.

• NET-STORAGE-USAGE
  This right grants or denies the user use of Net-Storage.
  The space occupied on a Net-Storage volume is not counted toward the user’s public space limit.
