Setting up CA ACF2
If CA ACF2 is your primary ESM, you must perform the following procedures to support the Security interface:
- Associate ACF2 STC LOGONIDs with the CAS and PAS started task procedures.
- Update the authorized command processor table.
- Add support for a custom SAF resource CLASS.
For complete information about administering CA ACF2, refer to your CA ACF2 documentation.
To associate ACF2 STC LOGONIDs with the CAS and PAS started task procedures
Define LOGONIDs for the CAS and PAS started tasks by using ACF2 commands, such as:
ACF
SET LID
INSERT USING(ACFSTCID) BBMCAS NAME(MAINVIEW CAS) +
STC SOURCE(STCINRDR) NOTSO
INSERT USING(ACFSTCID) BBMPAS NAME(MAINVIEW PAS) +
STC SOURCE(STCINRDR) NOTSO
ENDAssociate the LOGONIDs with the CAS and PAS started task procedure names.
A LOGONID can be associated with an address space by:- Having an exact match between the started task name and the LOGONID
- Using the CA ACF2 started task control installation exit (STCXIT) to establish correspondence between the started task and its associated LOGONID
For information about the STCXIT installation exit, refer to your CA ACF2 documentation.
To update the authorized command processor table
Some sites have a security package (such as IBM RACF or PCF or Computer Associates CA ACF2 or CA TOP SECRET) that defines an authorized command processor table to restrict TSO command processor execution.
If your security package defines this type of table, you might need to add the following programs and commands to the table:
- AOEXEC
- BALCMSG
- BBM3API
- BBM9TC21
- BBM9TC22
- BBM9TC24
- BBVJSETP
- BMILI0
- DOMDMAIN
- EMTMPW
- LGCOMAIN
- SMLOAD
- TSLOAD
To support a custom SAF resource CLASS
- Determine the generalized resource rule TYPE to be used in compiling the rules to control access to product resources.
Update the CLASMAP records by using ACF2 commands, such as:
ACF
SET Control(GSO)
INSERT CLASMAP.class RESOURCE(class)+
RSRCTYPE(type) ENTITYLN(39)
END- Refresh the in-storage copy of the CLASMAP table by issuing the following MODIFY command:F ACF2, REFRESH(CLASMAP)
(Optional) To make the rules for the selected resource rule TYPE resident, perform the following tasks:
Add the resource rule TYPE to the INFODIR GSO record by using ACF2 commands, such as:ACF
SET Control(GSO)
CHANGE INFODIR ADD TYPES(R-Rtype)
END
- Refresh the in-storage INFODIR data by issuing the following system MODIFY command:F ACF2, REFRESH(INFODIR)
- Rebuild the in-storage directory for a resource rule type by issuing the following MODIFY command:
F ACF2, REBUILD(type)
