I agree and in a previous shop that I worked for the lead system programmer had the authority to give the needed access to SYS1 datasets. We had no problem with a UACC(READ) for the PARMLIBS. Now I'm in a shop that uses TopSecret instead of RACF and all security granting is done by the Security group. I don't even have the authority to grant someone access to my personal TSO datasets. I have to send an email to IT Security and ask them to grant the access. Now, IMHO, that's draconian. Of course a lot of this might have come about because of our great government and regulations like HIPAA and Sarbanes-Oxley. Some places are tightening down more than they might need to just to be on the safe side. I've always worked at banks, and I know from dealing with them that you don't want the Federal Reserve or the Comptroller of the Currency on your back.
