If external security is active on the system, CA Dataquery obtains the signon ID of the user from the external security package. Once the signon ID is retrieved, CA Dataquery checks the eligibility of the user to sign on to CA Dataquery. To leave off the signon card in batch, you must also specify SECINF=YES in the DQOPTLST.
After CA Dataquery determines that a user is eligible for signon, CA Dataquery makes additional resource checks to determine the access of the user to functions from external security. If a DQU record for the user exists, the record is updated with the latest access rights from external security. If one does not exist, one is created, since the DQU record also contains various profile options maintainable by the individual user.
The access rights in effect at the beginning of a CA Dataquery session determine the functions appearing on CA Dataquery menus and the commands allowed throughout the CA Dataquery session. When an externally secured function is requested by command or PF key or from a menu, the function is checked to determine if the user is still authorized.
If external security is not in effect, CA Dataquery internal security is in effect.
