XPARMS (Major)

ENF automatically calls CA Top Secret (ENFCICS is active) when access is attempted for any CICS resource. To reduce overhead, use XPARMS to disable calls for resources that you do not wish to protect. For example:

XTRAN

Transaction attach.

XPCT

Started transaction.

XPPT

Programs.

XFCT

Files.

XTST

Temp storage.

XDCT

Transient data.

If needed, you can utilize the application interface to protect a single resource. For example, if you only need to protect 1 program out of 5000, you can eliminate the overhead associated for checks related to the other 4999 programs by adding a TSSCAI call before going off to the new program.
