ADAAEW | Collection of auditing data for xxxxxx commands for file nnnnn will not be controlled by field names |
Explanation |
The value of xxxxx will be either access or update. If the value is "access", then one of the ADAANP parameters FACCACBX, FACCDS, or FACCINFO is set to FIELDS and there was no field list provided in FACCFIELDS. In this case, FACCACBX, FACCDS, and FACCINFO are changed to NO. If the value is "update", then one of the ADAANP parameters FUPDACBX, FUPDAI, FUPDBI or FUPDINFO is set to FIELDS and there was no field list provided in FUPDFIELDS. In this case, FUPDACBX, FUPDAI, FUPDBI, and FUPDINFO are changed to NO. |
