Enhanced command security

Enhanced Command Security allows IMS command protection to be more granular by protecting the first keyword of a command as well as the command.

A user may be granted authority to enter some keywords but not others. For example, a user may be granted authority to issue the /CHE command but may not be authorized to issue the /CHE DUMPQ command.

ETA also allows you to tailor IMS commands to allow or disallow the ALL parameter, generic parameters, or a given command or keyword.

Enhanced Command Security may be used to protect commands from any of the following command input sources:

  • Dynamic terminals
  • Static terminals
  • IMS time-controlled operations (TCO) interface
  • IMS WTOR
  • IMS master terminal
  • Automated operator interface (AOI) ICMD calls
  • MCS/EMCS consoles
  • Operations Manager

Each environment may be activated individually.
