1    /BACKUP

    Modifies the time value specified with the /BEFORE or the /SINCE
    qualifier. The /BACKUP qualifier selects files according to the
    dates of their most recent backups (rather than by the creation,
    expiration, or modification date). By default, SHOW SECURITY
    selects files according to their creation date.

2    /BEFORE

       /BEFORE[=time]

    Selects only those files dated prior to the specified time.
    You can specify time as absolute time, as a combination of
    absolute and delta times, or as one of the following keywords:
    BOOT, LOGIN, TODAY (default), TOMORROW, or YESTERDAY. Specify
    the /CREATED or the /MODIFIED qualifier to indicate the time
    attribute to be used as the basis for selection. The /CREATED
    qualifier is the default.

    For complete information on specifying time values, see the
    OpenVMS User's Manual or the online help topic Date.

3    /BY_OWNER

       /BY_OWNER[=uic]

    Selects files whose owner's UIC matches the UIC specified with
    uic. The default UIC is that of the current process.

    Specify the UIC by using the standard format described in the VSI
    OpenVMS Guide to System Security.

4    /CLASS

       /CLASS=class

    Specifies the class of the object whose profile is to be
    displayed. By default, the command assumes the object class is
    FILE. Object class keywords are as follows:

       CAPABILITY                      LOGICAL_NAME_TABLE
       COMMON_EVENT_CLUSTER            QUEUE
       DEVICE                          RESOURCE_DOMAIN
       FILE                            SECURITY_CLASS
       GROUP_GLOBAL_SECTION            SYSTEM_GLOBAL_SECTION
       ICC_ASSOCIATION                 VOLUME

5    /CREATED

    Modifies the time value specified with the /BEFORE or the /SINCE
    qualifier. The /CREATED qualifier selects files according to the
    date they were created (rather than by the backup, expiration,
    or modification date). By default, SHOW SECURITY selects files
    according to their creation date.

6    /EXCLUDE

       /EXCLUDE=(filespec[,...])

    Excludes the specified files from the SHOW SECURITY operation.
    You can include a directory, but not a device, in the file
    specification. You cannot use relative version numbers to exclude
    a specific version.

7    /EXPIRED

    Modifies the time specified with the /BEFORE or the /SINCE
    qualifier. The /EXPIRED qualifier selects files according to
    their expiration dates rather than by the backup, creation,
    or modification date. (The expiration date is set with the SET
    FILE/EXPIRATION_DATE command.) By default, files are selected
    according to their creation date.

8    /MODIFIED

    Modifies the time value specified with the /BEFORE or the /SINCE
    qualifier. The /MODIFIED qualifier selects files according to
    the dates on which they were last modified, rather than by the
    backup, creation, or expiration date. By default, files are
    selected according to their creation date.

9    /SINCE

       /SINCE[=time]

    Selects only those files dated on or after the specified time.
    You can specify time as absolute time, as a combination of
    absolute and delta times, or as one of the following keywords:
    BOOT, JOB_LOGIN, LOGIN, TODAY (default), TOMORROW, or YESTERDAY.
    Specify the /CREATED or the /MODIFIED qualifier to indicate
    the time attribute to be used as the basis for selection. The
    /CREATED qualifier is the default.

    For complete information on specifying time values, see the
    OpenVMS User's Manual or the online help topic Date.

10    /SYMLINK

       /SYMLINK=keyword

    The valid keywords for this qualifier are [NO]WILDCARD,
    [NO]ELLIPSIS, and [NO]TARGET. Descriptions are as follows:

    Keyword     Explanation

    NOWILDCARD  Indicates that symlinks are disabled during directory
                wildcard searches.
    WILDCARD    Indicates that symlinks are enabled during wildcard
                searches.
    NOELLIPSIS  Indicates that symlinks are matched for all wildcard
                fields except for ellipsis.
    ELLIPSIS    Equivalent to WILDCARD (included for command
                symmetry).
    TARGET      Indicates that if the target file of the file
                specification is a symlink, then the target file
                is followed.
    NOTARGET    Indicates that the command operates on the target
                file even if it is a symlink.

    If the file named in the SHOW SECURITY command is a symlink, the
    command by default operates on the symlink itself.
