FSEC Parameter Syntax

The FSEC parameter syntax is as follows:

FSEC=(database-ID,file-number,password,cipher-key,RO)

Where:

Syntax Element	Value	Explanation
`database-ID`	`1-65535`, except `255`	Database identification of the database in which the Natural Security system file is located. Notes: Database ID `255` is reserved for logical system files for Software AG products, see Natural profile parameter `LFILE`. If no `FSEC` system file is available, do not enter anything in the file number field.
`file-number`	`1-5000`	File number of the database file in which the Natural Security system file is located. Note: If no `FSEC` system file is available, do not enter anything in the file number field.
`password`	1 - 8 characters	Password for the Natural Security system file. Notes: A password is only required if the Natural Security system file has been password-protected using the Adabas security feature. The password feature is reserved for future use; currently, it is ignored.
`cipher-key`	1 - 8 numeric characters	Cipher key for the Natural Security system file.
`RO`	-	Read-only option. Note: The `RO` option is not supported on this platform.

Examples:

FSEC=(10,8)
FSEC=10,5,PASSW1,12345678
FSEC=1,200,,12345678
