SET DEFAULT PROTECTION Command

Function

     The SET DEFAULT PROTECTION command sets a default protection code
     for files you create during the job.  Any value you set with this
     command overrides the system's standard  protection  code.   Your
     system  administrator sets the system's standard protection code,
     which is usually <055> or <057>.  The default protection code set
     by using this command will be in effect for any of your programs.

Formats

     SET DEFAULT PROTECTION <nnn>

     SET DEFAULT PROTECTION ON

     SET DEFAULT PROTECTION OFF

     Where:    <nnn>  is  the  value  that  you  can  specify  as  the
               protection code for any files you might create.

               ON tells the system to  use  the  protection  code  you
               specified  previously,  even  though you may have since
               used the SET DEFAULT PROTECTION OFF command.

               OFF tells the  system  to  use  the  system's  standard
               protection code when you create files, even if you have
               issued a SET DEFAULT PROTECTION <nnn> command.
