Hi,
Our auditor has asked why have not protected the command to 'stop' racf.
Neither I nor our MVS gurus know of such an animal. I found some STOP for
RRSF in System Command manual, but that's just some part of RACF.
Any ideas on what our auditor is talking about?
Idea #1.
Auditor has no idea also.
Idea #2.
STOP RACF address space.
Nothing related to security (holes).
RACF A/S is optional, can be started or stopped during normal operations.
This command can be protected using (AFAIR) RACF.STOP profile in OPERCMD
class.
Idea #3.
He means stop RACF.
No such stop.
Idea #4.
He means RVARY INACTIVE.
RVARY command is *not protected* by any profile, it is protected by
password. After RVARY WTOR is issued, operator have to reply with
password or NO word.
