Enhanced BSUBCHK Function

The function of BSUBCHK is enhanced for CAICCI and TCP/IP terminal jobs. This change lets the BSUBCHK setting for the target CA WA CA 7 Edition instance optionally control SUBMIT security checking on the terminal side. In addition, if an SCLASS value other than the default is specified for the instance, this value is optionally used to perform the SUBMIT security checks on the terminal side.

Previously, a SUBMIT security check was only performed when the system on which the terminal executes had BSUBCHK enabled.

With this change, if BSUBCHK is turned on for the target instance of CA WA CA 7 Edition, a SUBMIT security check is performed. The check can use the SUBMIT class value that is defined for the instance. If the target CA WA CA 7 Edition has BSUBCHK disabled, no SUBMIT security check is performed. If the target instance of CA WA CA 7 Edition is an older version, the current function of the program is preserved. SUBMIT security checking is done based on the BSUBCHK setting on the system on which the terminal executes with the default SUBMIT class value.

Note: For more information about the BSUBCHK setting, see the System Programmer Guide.

In all cases, the initial SUBMIT security check is performed on the terminal system. For that reason, any security rules that are defined for the SUBMIT class must be present on this system too.

Note: For more information about the SUBMIT class values, see the Security Reference Guide.
