Viewing Security Object Data in the Investigator › Security Definitions › Facilities Class XREF

Facilities Class XREF

The Facilities Class XREF category lets you view facilities defined in your CA Top Secret systems. A facility is a way of grouping options that are associated with a particular service that users login to. To log in to a service, a user must have access to the facility. Only the MSCA can access any facility by default. Everyone else must be authorized to access one or more facilities.

CA Top Secret ships with defined facilities in its Facilities Matrix Table. Examples of such services are BATCH, Started Tasks, CICS, and TSO.

To log in to a service, a user must be given access to the facility. Some services such as BATCH, STC, and TSO are automatically associated with the facility of the same name. Others such as CICS, CA IDMS, and IMS must be associated with an appropriate facility.

After you select a row of data, more granular information appears in the Details pane at the bottom of the Investigator.
