11 Arguments:
12 path
13 is the relative or absolute pathname of the segment, MSF, DM file,
14 or extended entry whose ring brackets are to be modified.
15 ring_numbers
16 are the numbers that represent the ring brackets of the segment,
17 MSF, DM file, or extended entry. For a segment or MSF there are
18 three ring brackets rb1 rb2 rb3. The ring brackets must be in the
19 allowable range 0 through 7 and must have the ordering
20 rb1 <= rb2 <= rb3

23 If you omit rb1, rb2, and rb3, they are set to your current
24 validation level. The rb1 ring bracket is the number to be used as
25 the first ring bracket of the segment; if omitted, you can't give
26 rb2 and rb3 and rb1, rb2, and rb3 are set to your current validation
27 level. The rb2 ring bracket is the number to be used as the second
28 ring bracket of the segment; if omitted, you can't give rb3, and it
29 is set, by default, to rb1. The rb3 ring bracket is the number to
30 be used as the third ring bracket of the segment; if omitted, it is
31 set to rb2.
32
33 For a DM file there are only two ring brackets rb1 rb2. They have
34 the same properties as rb1 and rb2 for segments.
35
36 For an extended entry the ring brackets you can give depend on the
37 entry type see describe_entry_type.

40 Notes: Your process must have a validation level less than or equal to
41 rb1. Ring brackets and validation levels are discussed in
42 "Intraprocess Access Control" of the Programmer's Reference Manual.
