Adding ACTEMAIN and ACTDCL to the ISPF command table
System security can use a TSO command-limiting function to restrict an individual user or an entire site. This function applies to TSO commands that are issued from the READY prompt or from ISPF.
To add commands to the ISPF command table
- Edit the ISPF command table.
If command limiting is active, you must add the following commands to the list of commands that are allowed forCatalog Manager:
- ACTEMAIN—used to accessCatalog Manager
- ACTDCL—used to create a DCLGEN inCatalog Manager
Command limiting is activated in the following ways:
For an individual, with the TSOCMDS field of the logon ID record
TSOCMDS specifies the name of a module that contains a list of valid commands for a user. For a sample list, see the ACF$CMDS member of CAI.CAIMAC.
For an entire site, with the CMDLIST field of the GSO record named TSO
The ALLCMDS field indicates permission for a user to bypass command limiting. Use the character that is specified in the BYPASS field of the GSO TSO record as a prefix for the command name.
