Defining Structured Infostorage Records

This chapter explains structured infostorage records for VM. Structured infostorage records are composed of fields that you can individually list, update, and validate in a specific record on the Infostorage database. (Unstructured infostorage records are composed of lists and you must validate and retrieve the entire record to update individual lists.)

CA ACF2 for VM lets you define certain VM system options through VM Option records (VMO records) and specify who can issue ACFSERVE commands through ACFSERVE privilege records.

This chapter is in two parts, Part I: Defining VM System Options and Part II: Defining User Privileges for ACFSERVE Commands.

Because most of the ACF subcommands under the CONTROL(ACFSERVE) setting function like the ACF subcommands under the CONTROL(VMO) setting, we often refer you back to the relevant section or definition in Part I: Defining VM System Options to avoid repeating information.

This section contains the following topics:
