Batch Execute External Security Manager Commands to Create the Owner and Profiles

Executing external security manager commands in batch creates the basic security product owner and profiles. Batch execution requires a user ID with sufficient RACF authority. The user requires authority to execute all of the external security manager commands contained in the DEFRACF members. The CA OPS/MVS administrator generates these members.

Follow these steps:

  1. Log in to a user ID that has sufficient authority with your z/OS security package to define resources and groups.
  2. Locate the DEFRACF member containing the external security manager your CA OPS/MVS Administrator generated.
  3. Run a batch job to execute the external security manager member. The SAMPLE JCL distributed with CA OPS/MVS in data set opshlq.CCLXCNTL contains the BATRACF member.

    Note: You can customize the sample batch job BATRACF to execute the external security manager commands member.

You have executed in batch the external security manager commands.
