Access Control Software Considerations

If the data center uses access control software both the installer and CA Auditor users must have the authority to access various CA Auditor and system data sets.

The access requirements of the CA Auditor installer are different from those of the CA Auditor user. The installer must be able to create the CA Auditor data sets using the data supplied on the distribution tape. The user must be able to read the programs and information contained in the CA Auditor data sets and to update the CA Auditor user profile database.

You can use the CA Auditor Key System Data Set Display function to identify the APF, linklist, LPA, and other z/OS system data sets CA Auditor frequently searches.

The following table lists the access requirements for CA Auditor data sets for both non‑SMP/E and SMP/E installations and z/OS system data sets.
