The Create Page Segment (CRTPAGSEG) command creates a page segment space object by copying a user-supplied database file to an internal space object. The user must load the page segment resource into the database from a remote system (such as a System/370) or from an external medium (such as a tape) and must put the resource in the SAA format that can be processed by the operating system.
Specifies the text that briefly describes the object.
*MBRTXT
The text is taken from the file member being used to create the page segment. You can add or change text for a database source member by using the Source Entry Utility (STRSEU) command, or by using either the Add Physical File Member (ADDPFM) command or the Change Physical File Member (CHGPFM) command. If the file is an inline file or a device file, the text is blank.
*BLANK
No text is specified.
character-value
Specify no more than 50 characters of text, enclosed in apostrophes.
Specifies the authority you are giving to users who do not have specific authority for the object, who are not on an authorization list, and whose group profile or supplemental group profiles do not have specific authority for the object.
*LIBCRTAUT
The system determines the authority for the object by using the value specified on the Create authority (CRTAUT) parameter on the Create Library command (CRTLIB) for the library containing the object to be created. If the value specified on the Create authority (CRTAUT) parameter is changed, the new value will not affect any existing objects.
*CHANGE
The user can perform all operations on the object except those limited to the owner or controlled by object existence (*OBJEXIST) and object management (*OBJMGT) authorities. The user can change and perform basic functions on the object. *CHANGE authority provides object operational (*OBJOPR) authority and all data authority. If the object is an authorization list, the user cannot add, change, or remove users.
*ALL
The user can perform all operations except those limited to the owner or controlled by authorization list management (*AUTLMGT) authority. The user can control the object's existence, specify the security for the object, change the object, and perform basic functions on the object. The user also can change ownership of the object.
*USE
The user can perform basic operations on the object, such as running a program or reading a file. The user cannot change the object. Use (*USE) authority provides object operational (*OBJOPR), read (*READ), and execute (*EXECUTE) authorities.
*EXCLUDE
The user cannot access the object.
name
Specify the name of an authorization list. Users included on the authorization list are granted authority to the object as specified by the list. The authorization list must exist when the object is created.
This command creates the page segment PAGSEG1 in MYLIB and uses the PAGSGMTS member, PAGSEG1 as input to the command. Specifying *ALL for the AUT parameter allows any user to perform most object-oriented commands against it. The text contains the description of the object.
