OPTIONS Member

The OPTIONS member contains the following parameters:

TRAPAUTH=[ALLOW|PREVENT|SAF]

Specifies the authorization required to issue SNMP traps by using the TRAP ON command.

ALLOW

Lets all users issue traps.

PREVENT

(Default) Forbids all users from issuing traps.

SAF

Causes CA Auditor to issue a SAF authorization call whenever an attempt is made to issue a trap. The SAF call has a class of CAEXAMIN, and one of the following entity names:

• TRAPAUTH.TEST—For test traps generated through the use of DEBUG flag 16.
• TRAPAUTH.BATCH—For other traps issued in batch jobs.
• TRAPAUTH.TSO—For other traps issued from a TSO session.

LOGUSE=[NONE|BATCH|TSO|ALL]

Specifies whether an SNMP trap should be issued when a user enters or leaves CA Auditor. This can be used to track use of CA Auditor.

NONE

(Default) Suppresses use logging.

BATCH

Logs only batch use.

TSO

Logs only TSO use.

ALL

Logs both batch and TSO use.

Because these logging SNMP traps are not initiated by the user, no SAF authorization call is performed for them, even if TRAPAUTH=SAF is specified.

To include comments in the member put an asterisk in column one of the comment line.
