owner Specifies the user identification code (UIC) or rights identifier. You can specify the UIC in numeric or alphanumeric format. For complete information about UIC specification, see the VSI OpenVMS Guide to System Security. Rights identifiers are granted with the Authorize utility and use an ID format rather than a UIC format. For a complete description of rights identifiers, see the VSI OpenVMS Programming Concepts Manual. When working in nonlocal environments, make sure that the alphanumeric UIC or rights identifiers that you use are valid for the environment.
