Reviewing NetView security for Access NV operator IDs

In Step 3 Creating-DSIPARM-member-NAIOPT00, you added OPER01= through OPERxx= statements, which are operator IDs defined to NetView and that NetView uses to run commands and EXECs that originate from

  • EXECs running in MainView AutoOPERATOR BBI-SS PAS that include the IMFEXEC NETVIEW command
  • MainView AutoOPERATOR Rules that specify a NV command as part of the defined Action Specification for the Rule

You must authorize these operator IDs that are defined to NetView to run any commands or EXECs that originate from MainView AutoOPERATOR. You must also authorize the operator IDs to use the STOP and START commands because these commands may be used internally by MainView AutoOPERATOR without specifying them as a NetView Command or that may be used within a NetView EXEC.

In other words, these operator IDs must be defined to have enough NetView authority to perform any command requested from MainView AutoOPERATOR.

Note

When NetView is accessed from a TS session, the NetView operator ID is the same as the TS user ID. Standard NetView security applies to the operator ID.

When NetView is accessed from a MainView AutoOPERATOR EXEC (IMFEXEC NetView), the NetView operator ID is chosen by using a least-recently used algorithm from the pool of OPERxx IDs defined in DSIPARM member NAIOPT00. Standard NetView security applies to the operator ID.
