Personally I like use 3.17 in ISPF to view USS files and filesystems.

Easier to navigate

Subject: Unix Permissions Display Question

Hi List,

I am trying to understand what I am seeing when I display my /SYSTEM/etc
files especially for my PAGENT files.   I re-typed the display below:

Type   Perm   Permission   Owner           Filename
File     755      rwxr-xr-x       BPXROOT      pagent_TTLS.bkup20191118
File   +755    +rwxr-xr-x                              pagent_TTLS.conf
File     755      rwxr-xr-x       BPXROOT      pagent_TTLS.conf.oldcert

I am really interested in what the "+" means in front of the 755 and the
permissions rwxr-xr-x.   I think it means the file pagent_TTLS.conf is
somehow protected externally by RACF but I am not sure.   I have not been
able to locate a redbook or manual that tells me what the "+" means.   In a
CHMOD command the + means adding permissions, that I know (or think I know).
I am not a z/UNIX guru by any stretch of the imagination.   I am hoping
someone can enlighten me please.  Also if it is externally protected how I
could go about displaying the RACF protection or profile or ??   I have a
started task that tries to copy in an new version of this file when we do a
DR test but my started task fails and I need to do it manually as SuperUser.

Thanks,

FredG.
