Define the FDR/UPSTREAM USS Process Userid

The FDR/UPSTREAM USS Process runs under the authority of an z/OS security system Userid. This Userid is usually defined expressly for use by only this process. This Userid will require that an z/OS security system OMVS segment be defined for it and that a proper level of access authority be assigned to it for FDR/UPSTREAM USS processing to function. It is suggested that the Userid be given UNIX super-user authority to avoid lengthy administrative definitions to allow access to all the files to be accessed by normal FDR/UPSTREAM processing. The following RACF commands will assist you in defining such a Userid. If you are using another security system such as TOPSECRET or ACF2, consult the appropriate documentation from the vendor.

List Current OMVS Segment Information

LISTUSER userid NORACF OMVS

Add/Alter a Super-User OMVS Segment to an existing userid

ALTUSER userid OMVS(UID(0))
