How security works with BMC AMI Ops products

The BMC AMI Ops environment provides an interface to ESMs (such as IBM RACF, CA Top Secret, or CA ACF2) by using standard System Authorization Facility (SAF) calls. Two types of security are available for BMC AMI Ops products, depending on the product interface:

  • Windows-mode security
  • Full-screen mode security
Warning

Notes

  • Additional security is available for Alternate Access, which provides access to products through VTAM and EXCP interfaces without TSO communication support. Security for Alternate Access is independent of other product security. If your site uses Alternate Access, see Controlling-Alternate-Access.
  • How security is defined for BMC AMI Ops SYSPROG Services, is different from other BMC AMI Ops products. The BBSEC member that contains the TYPE=SYSPROG statement must reside in SYS1.PARMLIB or the logical PARMLIB concatenation. For more information about the TYPE=SYSPROG statement, see the comments in the sample BBSEC member and TYPE=SYSPROG statement.
