Installing CA Datacom Datadictionary Security

You should have completed the planning of CA Datacom Datadictionary Security as described in Planning for CA Datacom Datadictionary Security before beginning implementation.

Step 1

If you select a security level greater than 1 - Facility Level, or if you select no CA Datacom Datadictionary Security (0), you must change the SECLVL= parameter in the System Resource Table (SRT) after installing this version.

Five options are available:

Option 0:

Enforces minimum security in CA Datacom Datadictionary. Only the presence of a PERSON entity-occurrence in PROD status is required for access to most facilities of CA Datacom Datadictionary.

Option 1: FACILITY LEVEL (default)

A user must be authorized to use a given facility (DDUPDATE, DDUTILTY, ENTM, SQL, and so on).

Option 2: ENTITY LEVEL

A user must be authorized to perform any function on a given entity-type.

Option 3: STATUS LEVEL

A user must be authorized to perform any function on a given entity-type in a given status.

Option 4: FUNCTION LEVEL

A user must be authorized to perform a given function, on a given entity-type, in a given status.

Step 2

Accept the default for the COMPAT= parameter in the CA Datacom Datadictionary System Resource Table.

Note: For more information about this parameter, see the CA Datacom/DB Database and System Administration Guide.

Step 3

Using the CA Datacom Datadictionary Security Maintenance facilities, enter the profiles and catalog them to the High-Speed Directory (HSD).

Step 4

Also using the CA Datacom Datadictionary Security Maintenance facilities, identify the users to the system and associate each with a profile. In addition, a user can optionally be assigned as a CA Datacom Datadictionary Security Administrator.
