Implementing Security for APPC z/OS › Adding SYSOUT and ACCOUNT Information › Data Authority Operand

Data Authority Operand

In addition to these fields, there is also an operand for the DATA authority called WORKATTR. This operand is specified when performing a TSS LIST command and provides information about the values specified in any of the fields listed previously.

Authority

To add, remove, or update WORKATTR data for the ACIDs within his scope of authority the administrator must have MISC2(WORKATTR) authority.

Examples

In this example, the DCA for the R&D Department would like to have all SYSOUT information generated by ACIDs using the TESTPROF profile delivered to Ed Brown in room 212 of the Second Floor Lab. The DCA would issue the following command:

TSS ADDTO(TESTPROF) WANAME('Ed Brown')
                    WAROOM(212)
                    WADEPT('R&D').
                    WAADDR1('Second Floor Lab')

In this example, the event that Sharon Brophy takes over Ed's position, the following command can be issued:

TSS REPLACE(TESTPROF) WANAME('Sharon Brophy')
                      WAROOM(213)

In this example, if Mel Thomas has WORKATTR information included on both his User ACID and on the TESTPROF ACID he is associated with, the information provided by his user record takes precedence.

In this example, if the DCA wanted to list the SYSOUT distribution information for the TESTPROF profile, he would issue:

TSS LIST(TESTPROF) DATA(WORKATTR)
