Creating site security data set


Although you cannot customize default global security parameters, you can create customized security for 

BMC AMI Ops

 resources at your site. Use the following procedure to define a security data set to contain these customized security definitions for your site.

Tip

This task is required for all BMC AMI Ops products.

In this procedure, you will define a security data set with the BBSECURE DD statement in the CAS and PAS started task procedures.

Note

The default global settings (default global security parameters, resource class properties, and product-specific resource definitions) are distributed in the BBACTDEF data set.

For more information about setting up security and using the Plex Manager security views to customize security at your site, see Managing-security-for-BMC-AMI-Ops-products.

To create a site security (BBSECURE) data set

  1. Create a data set with the following DCB characteristics:

    • RECFM=FB
    • LRECL=80
    • BLKSIZE= any multiple of 80

      Use the same high-level qualifier for this data set that you used for your target libraries during the installation process.

    Note

    If you use the ISPF Data Set Utility, do not specify the PACK option. BMC AMI Ops product site data sets cannot be packed when allocated.

  2. In the CAS started task procedure, specify the name of the data set that you created on the DSN parameter of the BBSECURE DD statement.
  3. In each PAS started task procedure, specify the name of the data set that you created on the DSN parameter of the BBSECURE DD statement.
