Class Descriptor Table

The Class Descriptor table is used to describe resource classes to be used by the RACF security system. There are three classes used by CA TLMS: CA@MD, CA@APE and PA@EL.

Usage Notes

Modification to the Class Descriptor table should be done by the person responsible for installation and maintenance of RACF. An IPL of the operating system is required for this module to become active.

The values of ID and POSIT may have to be changed, as required, at your installation. Consult your IBM RACF manual for more information.

The class names may be changed based on the Class Descriptor table in the CAS9SAFC module supplied with CA TLMS. See the CA Common Services for z/OS Installation Guide for details on the CAS9SAFC module.
