Control Options and the PARM Field

Whenever the CA Top Secret started task procedure executes, this method overrides control option defaults or parameter file specifications.

z/OS limits the size of the PARM= field to 100 characters, use the parameter file to specify an initial set of control options during the installation of CA Top Secret. The limit for a single line in the parameter file is 80.

Example: change BACKUP control option

In this example the EXEC statement is coded to change the value of the BACKUP control option:

TSS EXEC PROGRAM=TSSMNGR4,DPRTY=(15,14),TIME=1440,
         REGION=500K,PARM=‘BACKUP(0500)’
