Agent Technology › Customization Considerations › AWADMIN Account

AWADMIN Account

Establish the administrator account (default name, AWADMIN) in the default group AWGROUP. The zFS files are associated with AWGROUP when they are formatted. The user account must be authorized to:

• Perform job submission
• Write to the HFS or zFS (OMVS access)
• Submit the APPC transactions

This account must also specify a HOME directory equal to that of the root Agent Technology directory (/cai/agent by default). It is not necessary to use the exact Group and User codes (911 and 912 respectively) as those specified in the installation process.

Important! Do not use UID(0) for the administrator account.

If you use the CA Top Secret product, you can amend the example TSS commands to add syntax to create a department specific to Agent Technology. For example:

tss cre(awdept) type(dept) name('Agent Technology Department')

Reference this department name in the AWGROUP and AWADMIN definitions.
