Auditing, Reporting, and Surveillance › Resources Audit

Resources Audit

Any resource can be audited. For example:

• Data sets
• Volumes
• Programs
• Terminals
• Abstracts
• Applications
• UR1, UR2
• CICS resources (FCT, DCT, JCT, PPT, TST)
• IMS resources (PSB, AGN, DBD)
• CA‑IDMS resources (SUBSCHEMA, AREA)

All access attempts defined to the AUDIT record for the resource are recorded in the Audit/Tracking File or the SMF.

To audit any accesses, enter:

TSS ADDTO(AUDIT) resource(resource‑name)

To specify the access or accesses to be audited for a resource, enter:

TSS ADDTO(AUDIT) resource(resource-name)
                 ACCESS(level1, level2, …)

Any resource, whether defined or undefined, can be audited. The specific resources, or all resources matching a generic prefix, can also be audited.

Notes:

• If access is not specified, ACCESS(ALL) is assumed
• ACCESS(NONE) is ignored
• A resource or prefix that is defined to the AUDIT record cannot exceed 64 characters
