Authorizing the region userid to access category 1 transactions

To enable CICS® to start up with external security, you must first have authorized the CICS region userid to access the category 1 system transactions. If the region userid does not have this authority at CICS startup, CICS issues message DFHXS1113, and terminates.

To give the region userid the authority to access the category 1 system transactions, edit and submit the sample job stream in Figure 4 to execute the CICS-supplied sample CLIST, DFH$CAT1. This job uses the RACF® commands in the CLIST to update the RACF database.

Note:
Only a user with the RACF authority SPECIAL can execute the CLIST to update the RACF database.
Figure 4. Batch job to execute the sample CLIST, DFH$CAT1
//RACFMIG  JOB 'accounting information',
//             CLASS=A,USER=userid,PASSWORD=password
//DEFINE   EXEC PGM=IKJEFT01
//SYSPRINT DD SYSOUT=A
//SYSTSPRT DD SYSOUT=A
//SYSUDUMP DD SYSOUT=A
//SYSTSIN  DD *
 EXEC 'CICSTS31.CICS.SDFHSAMP(DFH$CAT1)' LIST
