Benefits of the Compliance Report

For a single userid, the information in the compliance report can be obtained by issuing the following command:

TSS LIST(acid)

For all userids, the information in this report can be obtained by issuing the following command:

TSS LIST(acids)

The advantages of the report over issuing the CA Top Secret commands include:

In a multiple system image environment, the report can be run for more than one system image. To obtain the same information using the TSS command, the command must be issued in each system image, and the information then correlated manually.
If a user has more than one ACID in a single system image, or different ACIDs in different system images, the report can be run using a global ID. The global ID obtains each ACID associated with the user, and reports on the profiles connected to each ACID.
The report displays only the profiles connected to the user. The TSS command displays additional information, and the connected profiles must be extracted from the information.
The compliance report for all userids and the connected profiles can be requested at any time, and runs quickly with no impact on security product performance. The TSS command to obtain the same information must process the entire security database. This command takes a long time, impacts performance of the security product, and should only be run during periods of low activity.
