CA CSM Associated Security IDs - OMVS Segment and Home Directory

If the msmserv USS directory path is unavailable, CA CSM does not operate. Assign a user ID to the application address spaces with this home directory path. This step prevents the possibility of CA CSM filling up a USS system or another application file system. This action ensures that CA CSM is isolated to the file systems allocated for its use.

A user ID with a valid OMVS segment defined must be assigned to the CA CSM address spaces. This OMVS segment requires that a valid home directory is defined. We recommend that the user IDs are assigned to a home directory of the USS path for the msmserv directory. If the default USS directory paths are used, this path is /u/users/msmserv.
