Execution Considerations for USS Rules

The processing section of a rule that responds to a USS message event executes in the address space that is running CCS for z/OS. This address space varies depending on how the CA Event Manager process (CAIOPR) is started in a USS address space of z/OS. Therefore, any type of logic that could possibly suspend the processing of a USS rule should be performed by scheduling an OPS/REXX program to a CA OPS/MVS OSF TSO, TSL, or TSP server.

The AOF execution limits apply to the processing section of a rule that responds to a security event.
