Setting Up View Facility Administration › Overview

Overview

This chapter is intended for administrators. It explains how to set up CA TPX administration to ensure secure usage of the View facility. This chapter provides procedures needed to ensure secure usage of the View facility. This involves providing the proper authorization to users and making the TPXVIEW session available to authorized users. This is done through the normal tasks of user administration such as maintaining self-maintenance update classes, command authorization classes, profiles, and other tables.

The procedures in this chapter assume a simple administrative structure consisting of a single user group, with existing profiles and command authorization and self-update classes.

If your site has a more complicated structure, read through these procedures to gain an understanding of what must be done to implement View security, and then adapt these procedures for your site.

If your site has not yet set up CA TPX administration, see the Administration Guide to determine how you want to set up administration.

For a complete discussion of user administration, see the Administration Guide. Administration can also be performed using batch programs, as described in the Batch Administration Guide. This chapter provides procedures for online administration only.
