Must a site specify STNFILE parameters for ALL files, including data files?

No. If STNFILE parameters are not specified, SECURITRE generates default pseudo dataset names based on the DBID/FNR combination. STNFILE statements provide “alias” names for files to simplify security administration. For example, rather than granting access to the cryptic pseudo dataset name “D213F123”, the Security Administrator can grant access to the more meaningful database name “TEST” and file “PAYROLL”. The resulting pseudo dataset name is “TEST.PAYROLL”.
