Reason:
When you set your CA 1 security option PSWD=N, you are suppressing the security checks made when the CA 1 ISPF interface is invoked. This allows any user to access the TMC and possibly make updates to the volume and DSNB records. You can set up your external security system to only allow specific users to use specific passwords. When PSWD is set to YES, an external security call will made when anyone invokes the CA 1 ISPF interface.
Action:
This message is issued by the CA 1 Health Check component, which provides extensive detail on the problem encountered and the suggested response. The following actions and responses are documented for this check:
System Action: The CA 1 ISPF interface will execute. Unauthorized access to the TMC could result.
Operator Response: Notify the systems programmer of this security exposure.
System Programmer Response: The TMS security option PSWD is currently set to "NO". This option needs to be set to "YES". If you have the online password defined under resource CATAPE of your external security system, you can allow or deny users access to the specific online password. Setting this option to "YES" will cause a security call to your external security product every time a user logs on to the CA 1 ISPF panels.
Problem Determination: You can use the CA 1 ISPF panels to display the current values of all your CA 1 options along with other information about the CA 1 Tape Management system.
