How to Configure PassTicket for CA Insight Database Performance Monitor › Review Requirements

Review Requirements

The configuration of PassTicket involves other roles:

• z/OS security administrator to configure PassTicket in ESM
• CA Insight DPM administrator to enable PassTicket in Xnet

Gather the necessary information, and pass the information to those roles so they can complete their task.

Follow these steps:

1. Gather the following information:
   • Application name (appl_name) to use for the PassTicket definition, for example, DB2TOOLS

     Limits: One through eight characters

     Note: If PassTicket support is already enabled in Xnet (PASSNAME(appl_name) parameter is specified in the CDBAPARM(PXNPARM) data set member), use that appl_name as the application name.

   • User ID of the WILYZOS job (wilyzos_user_id) to authorize for PassTicket generation
2. Ask the z/OS security administrator to configure PassTicket in ESM, using the information in Step 1.
3. Ask the CA Insight DPM administrator to enable PassTicket in Xnet for appl_name.
