Installing the Key

You must assign a unique customer key to the CA Top Secret library to encrypt the security file before you start CA Top Secret. There is no default. The key is a 16-hexadecimal digit string separated into groups of four by commas (,). The first half of the key cannot match the second half.

Follow these steps:

  1. Edit the CAKOJCL0 member TSSKEY to conform to your site's standards.

    The member matches your standards.

  2. Supply your company's key in the ????,????,????,???? field and submit the job.

    The key is entered.

  3. ACCEPT the APAR so that the key is not left in clear text format in your SMP/E data sets. If your site does not protect job output, delete the output from this step to reduce the chance of the key value being viewed.

Important! You must use an identical key in all future versions of CA Top Secret. Safeguard your key.
