Implementing Security for IMS › Transaction Security › OTRAN Security

OTRAN Security

The OTRAN resource name is shared by all IMS, CICS, and CA IDMS® facilities. Protecting a transaction via OTRAN for an IMS region results in transactions of the same name being protected in all IMS, CICS, and CA IDMS regions that are also under the control of CA Top Secret.

Notes:

• A transaction protected via OTRAN will not go through LCF checking.
• Although OTRAN may be set with the MASK RDT attribute, this is not supported in the IMS environment. Clients employing TSS security in IMS are cautioned not to set the MASK attribute in the OTRAN RDT definition.

To add ownership of a transaction to an ACID, enter:

TSS ADDTO(acid) OTRAN(transaction)

To allow users access to the transaction, enter:

TSS PERMIT(acid) OTRAN(transaction)
