Interpreting the Facility Matrix Table

The Facility Matrix Table is stored in the Parameter File. To display the contents of the entire Facility Matrix Table or the attributes associated with a single facility within that table, use the TSS MODIFY command. For example,

TSS MODIFY STATUS

would display information for all the facilities. If you only wanted to display information for the TSO Facility, you would enter:

TSS MODIFY(FAC(TSO))

By default, the TSO Facility Matrix entry looks like the following:

TSO

INITPGM=IKJEFLC   ID=T   TYPE=03
ATTRIBUTES=IN-USE,ACTIVE,SHRPRF,NOASUBM,ABEND,SUAS,NOXDEF
ATTRIBUTES=LUMSG,STMSG,SIGN(M),INSTDATA,RNDPW,AUTHINIT
ATTRIBUTES=NOPROMPT,NOAUDIT,RES,WARNPW,TSOC,LCFCMD
ATTRIBUTES=NOTRACE,NODORMPW,NONPWR,MSGLC
MODE=FAIL  LOGGING=INIT,MSG,SEC9
UIDACID=8  LOCKTIME=000   DEFACID=*NONE*   KEY=8

The first line of text in the example identifies TSO to CA Top Secret. The remaining lines specify which FACILITY operands pertain to the TSO facility within the CA Top Secret security environment; that is, how CA Top Secret will treat users signed on to the TSO facility.
