Print Object Rules

The Print Object Rule (PRTOBJRUL) command allows you to print a listing of the Object Rules you have configured. The Object List Entries contained in the Object List named on the rule can also be listed.

Options

Subset by (SUBSET):

Use this parameter to subset the Object Rules printed on the report. This is a multi-part parameter consisting of six elements. If you leave any of the elements blank, the report will not be subset using that element. The elements are:

Location

Specify criteria to subset by Location. Location represents the source of a transaction. Location can hold an IP Address, an IP Address Group or the name of an SNA Communications Device. The special value *ALL, when used on a rule, means that the rule applies to any rule means that the rule applies to any Location lacking a specific rule. when used as a subset or selection parameter, *ALL generally means to select all such rules for display or printing. You can use the generic character to indicate that a partial value is to be used for selection. In some circumstances you may also use the wildcard character to indicate that a partial value is to be used for selection.

Style of Location value

When the value you key begins with an asterisk, this element allows you to format your request to find a single IP Address Group or any Location value that ends with the value you keyed (after the asterisk).

Valid values are:

*GROUP List only rules that have the specified IP Address Group on them.
*ENDSWITH List rules with any value that ends with the value you keyed.

User

Specify criteria to subset by User. User represents the identity of the person initiating a transaction as a user profile. The special value *PUBLIC, when used on a rule, means that the rule applies to any User lacking a specific rule. when used as a subset or selection parameter, *PUBLIC means to select all such rules for display or printing.

You can use the generic character to indicate that a partial value is to be used for selection. In some circumstances you may also use the wildcard character to indicate that a partial value is to be used for selection.

Style of User value

When the value you key is *PUBLIC, this element allows you to format your request to find only rules for *PUBLIC or any User value that ends with PUBLIC (like JIMPUBLIC, XPUBLIC, etc).

Valid values are:

*PUBLIC List only rules that have *PUBLIC as the User value.
*ENDSWITH List rules with any value that ends with PUBLIC.

Object List

Specify criteria to subset by Object list name. You can use the generic character to indicate that a partial value is to be used for selection. In some circumstances you may also use the wildcard character to indicate that a partial value is to be used for selection.

Operation

Specify criteria to subset by Operation.

Show rules for (SHOWFOR)

Use this parameter to include only Location—based rules or User—based rules in the report. You must select at least one by specifying *YES. This is a multi-part parameter consisting of two elements.

The elements are:

Locations

Indicate whether you want Location—based Object Rules to appear in the report. The valid values are:

*YES Location—based Object Rules will be included.
*NO Location—based Object Rules will not be included.

User

Indicate whether you want User—based Object Rules to appear in the report.

The valid values are:

*YES User—based Object Rules will be included.
*NO User—based Object Rules will not be included.
Sort by (SORTBY)

Use this parameter to sort the Object Rules printed on the report. Indicate the order in which you would like the Object Rules listed on the report. To omit an element from the sort, specify *NO for that element. Duplicate values are not allowed; you cannot sort more than one field at any given position. This is a multi-part parameter consisting of four elements.

The elements are:

Location

Specify the sort order for Location.

User

Specify the sort order for User.

Object List

Specify the sort order for Object List name.

Operation

Specify the sort order for Operation.

NOTE: If you specify *YES for Include Entries and Include Usage, additional fields display allowing you to further sort and subset the information to appear in the report.
Include Entries (INCLENT)

Indicate whether you would like the Object List Entries for each Object list to be printed on the report. The valid values are:

*YES The Object List Entries are printed on the report.
*NO The Object List Entries are not printed on the report.
Object List Entries (ENTRIES)

This is a multi-part parameter consisting of two groups of elements, one for subsetting the report and one for sorting it. This parameter is valid only when INCLENT(*YES) is specified on the command.

The elements are:

Subset by

This is a multi-part parameter consisting of four elements. If you leave any of the elements blank, the report will not be subset using that element.

The elements are:

Library

Specify criteria to subset by Library name. You can use the generic character to indicate that a partial value is to be used for selection. In some circumstances you may also use the wildcard character to indicate that a partial value is to be used for selection. You may specify <UNKNOWN> to select Object List Entries that pertain only to unqualified objects whose library cannot be determined.

Object

Specify criteria to subset by Object name. You can use the generic character to indicate that a partial value is to be used for selection. In some circumstances you may also use the wildcard character to indicate that a partial value is to be used for selection.

Type

Specify criteria to subset by Object Type.

Path

Specify criteria to subset by Path. You can use the generic character to indicate that a partial value is to be used for selection. In some circumstances you may also use the wildcard character to indicate that a partial value is to be used for selection.

Sort by

This is a multi-part parameter consisting of four elements. Indicate the order in which you would like the Object List Entries to be listed on the report. To omit an element from the sort, specify *NO for that element.

The elements are:

Library

Specify the sort order for Library name.

Object

Specify the sort order for Object name.

Type

Specify the sort order for Object Type.

Path

Specify the sort order for Path.
