RESOURCE Keyword—Global Resource Class Administration Authority

Valid on z/OS, z/VSE, and z/VM.

Use the RESOURCE keyword with the ADMIN command to give authority for an CA Top Secret administrator to issue ADDTO, REMOVE, PERMIT, or REVOKE commands for a specific resource class defined in the RDT applied to any ACID owned within its administrative scope. When a resource class contains access levels, the administration can be limited to ACCESS in one or more access-levels; if the administrator is to manipulate all access levels, specify ACCESS(ALL).

Use the RESOURCE keyword with the DEADMIN command to disallow administrative authority of RESOURCE manipulation, ACCESS can be specified by DEADMIN, but it is ignored.

Note: Authority can also be granted/removed to administer all resources globally.

This keyword has the following format:

TSS ADMIN(acid) RESOURCE(authoritylevel(s))
                ACCESS(accesslevel(s))
TSS DEADMIN(acid) RESOURCE(authoritylevel(s))
