This topic explains how to implement RACF® security for CICSPlex® SM.
The first section provides general information to help you determine who
needs access to the various CICSPlex SM functions.
The remaining sections provide detailed information on defining CICSPlex SM class
names, using resource names, activating security, and refreshing RACF profiles.
- Decide who needs access to CICSPlex SM.
- Review the general security requirements for CICSPlex SM.
- Create RACF profiles for the CICSPlex SM data
sets.
- Define the CICSPlex SM started
tasks to RACF.
- If CICS® transaction
security is active in a CMAS, define the CICSPlex SM transactions
to RACF.
- If CICS transaction security is active in a MAS, define the CICSPlex SM transactions
to RACF.
- Create RACF profiles for the CAS functions and PlexManager
views.
- Create RACF profiles for the CICSPlex SM views.
- Create RACF profiles for the CICSPlex SM Web
User Interface resources. See the CICSPlex System Manager Web User Interface Guide for
more information.
- If desired, activate simulated security checking using the CICSSYS,
CPLEXDEF, or MAS views
- Activate security in the CMASs and MASs using the CICSPlex SM and
CICS security-related system initialization parameters
