Security Data Set Conversion

The conversion utility GSVXCNVS runs during installation to convert the security data set from a previous CA SYSVIEW release to the current release.

If the security file is converted, command authorization for the new commands for this release will be marked as ALLOWED by default. In previous releases, new commands were failed by default.

To modify the default behavior for new commands, code the SYSIN data for the GSVXCNVS utility.

Example: SYSIN code

This example will fail new commands for all groups except ADMIN.

//SYSIN  DD  *
  FAILNEWCMDS=YES,GROUP=*ALL*
  FAILNEWCMDS=NO,GROUP=ADMIN
/*

The input will be processed in the order it is read. The last setting that applies to the user group will be used.
