Parameters for Optional Interfaces › UNIX System Services-related Parameters › USSRUN Parameter

USSRUN Parameter

Determines how long CA OPS/MVS allows a USS transaction to execute in an OSF USS server.

When any USS server transaction exceeds the time limit set by USSRUN, CA OPS/MVS terminates the server with the hung or looping transaction and starts another USS server to accept new commands.

Default value

600 (seconds)

Other possible values

Any number of seconds between 1 and 604800 (7 days), inclusive

Set or modify this parameter...

Anytime

Example: USSRUN

This function sets a 60-second time limit for USS transactions:

OPSPRM('SET','USSRUN','60')

USSSECURITY Parameter

The USSSECURITY parameter determines which type of security check the OSF USS server performs.

Default value

NOSECURITY

This value allows the OSF USS server to operate with the security privileges assigned to the user ID that is associated with OPSUSS started task.

Other possible values

CHECKUSERID

If you specify this value, CA OPS/MVS uses the security privileges assigned to the issuer of the command, as follows:

• For work sent to servers from rules, the security privileges are those assigned to the user ID that is associated with OPSUSS started task.
• For work sent to servers from TSO users using the ADDRESS USS host command environment, the security privileges are those assigned to the TSO user ID.

Set or modify this parameter

At initialization

Example: USSSECURITY

The following function tells CA OPS/MVS to operate the OSF USS server under the authority of the Address USS requester.

OPSPRM('SET','USSSECURITY','CHECKUSERID')
