About the TSSPROT Utility

The TSSPROT utility is used to secure (or unsecure) MVS data sets, generally in an SU‑32 (non‑SAF) environment. Both VSAM and non‑VSAM data sets can be processed. A secured data set is one that has a RACF security indicator turned on. This indicator is recognized by the MVS Standard Security Interface and its drivers.

Note: If your system operates under an MVS Alwayscall environment this process is not required.
