Define Remote Background User IDs

When regions are linked, you want to permit a remote region background user (nnnnBSYS) to log on to the local region. Define the remote background user ID to the local region.

Follow these steps:

Define the remote nnnnBSYS user ID as a user to the external security package. No password is required:
- For CA ACF2, use the following commands:
```
ACF
SET LID
INSERT nnnnBSYS NAME(bsys_user_name) PASSWORD(NOPW)
```
- For CA Top Secret, use the following command:
```
TSS CRE(nnnnBSYS) TYPE(USER) DEPT(dept_acid) NAME('bsys_user_name') PASS(NOPW,0)
```
- For RACF, use the following command:
```
ADDUSER nnnnBSYS NAME('bsys_user_name')
```
bsys_user_name specifies a text string to identify the user (for example, BSYS User 1).
Permit the remote nnnnBSYS user ID to the facility resource associated with the SYSBGRND MODELGROUP entry in the PARMLIB(SXPARMS) member. The following commands assume the default value NETMASTR.BSYS is being used:
- For CA ACF2, use the following commands:
```
ACF
SET RESOURCE(FAC)
RECKEY NETMASTR ADD(BSYS UID(bsysuid) SERVICE(READ) ALLOW)
```
  bsysuid is the user identification (UID) corresponding to the nnnnBSYS user.
- For CA Top Secret, use the following command:
```
TSS PERMIT(nnnnBSYS) IBMFAC(NETMASTR.BSYS) ACCESS(READ)
```
- For RACF, use the following command:
```
PERMIT NETMASTR.BSYS CLASS(FACILITY) ID(nnnnBSYS) ACCESS(READ)
```
