the value specified on the

prompt
(CRTAUT parameter) on the Create Library command

affect any existing files.

the file, and perform basic functions on the file. ALL
authority allows the user to perform all operations on the
file except those limited to the owner or controlled by
authorization list management rights.

on the file. CHANGE authority allows the user to perform
all operations on the file except those limited to the owner
or controlled by object existence authority and object
management authority. CHANGE authority provides object
operational authority and all data authority.
*EXCLUDE EXCLUDE authority prevents the user from accessing the
file.

read a file. The user is prevented from changing the file.
