Task M9C0I023: Modify and Assemble ACFFDR

This task lets you modify and assemble the ACFFDR. See "Field Definition Record" for more information on the ACFFDR. To complete this task:

  1. Select task M9C0I023 from the Task Selection Menu.

    The following panel appears:

    M9C0I023 Modify and Assemble ACFFDR CA ACF2 for z/VM ====> This step allows you to edit and/or assemble the ACFFDR (Field Definition Record) file. Changes made by you will be saved in the update file shown; to create a new update file, type over this field with a new name. NO SOURCE CHANGES SHOULD BE MADE DIRECTLY TO ACFFDR ASSEMBLE. Update filetype: USERCFDE Description: ACF UPDATE FILE FOR USER @CFDE ENTRIES.

  2. Press PF6 to update the ACFFDR ASSEMBLE file. You should not edit the source file directly. The ACFFDR ASSEMBLE file is overlayed on the bottom of the panel:

    M9C0EDIT/M9C0I023 ACFFDR ASSEMBLE CA ACF2 for z/VM ‑‑‑‑‑‑‑‑‑‑‑‑‑‑‑‑‑‑‑‑‑‑‑‑‑‑‑‑‑‑‑‑‑‑‑‑‑‑‑‑‑‑‑‑‑‑‑‑‑‑‑‑‑‑‑‑‑‑‑‑‑‑‑‑‑‑‑‑‑‑‑‑‑‑‑‑‑‑‑ The ACFFDR (Field Definition Record) is a module that each installation modifies to customize CA ACF2 for z/VM to meet its security requirements. Review this file, and make changes as necessary. Common entries to change are the @SMF and @UID macros. You may also want to add additional @SRF macros. See the "CA ACF2 for z/VM Security for VM Installation Guide" for details. Note: If your installation changes or adds any @CFDE macros, you must have made the appropriate changes to the USERLID COPY or USERXLID COPY File. This is done in step 21 of the installation.

  3. If you are converting from a previous CA ACF2 for z/VM release, you must refit your updates to the ACFFDR because the FDR has been restructured.
  4. If you press PF2 to assemble the ACFFDR, a message appears on the panel confirming the assembly:

    M9C0I023 Modify and Assemble ACFFDR CA ACF2 for z/VM ===> ACFFDR assembly completed rc=0. Press PF3 to exit.

  5. If you receive a return code other than 0, correct the error and reexecute M9C0I023.
  6. Press PF3 to return to the Task Selection Menu.
