Options for Access Control Lists (ACLs)

Summary

Grants special access to SPD Server resources in the LIBNAME domain to an SPD Server user. The SPD Server user must also be defined as 'special' by the SPD Server administrator.

Syntax

ACLSPECIAL=YES | NO

Arguments

YES

grants special access (Read, Write, Alter, and Control permission) to all SPD Server resources in the domain.

NO

denies special access (Read, Write, Alter, and Control permission) to all SPD Server resources in the domain.

Description

Grants special privileges to all SPD Server tables and associated indexes in the LIBNAME domain. The special privileges, (Read, Write, Alter, and Control permission), override normal ACL restrictions only if the SPD Server administrator defines the user as 'special' in the user ID table.

Example

Grant special privileges to THEBOSS allowing him to Read, Write, Alter, and Control all tables in the CONVERSION_AREA domain. (The SPD Server administrator has defined THEBOSS as 'special'.)
