To keep our auditors happy (assuming that is possible) to secure our z/vm (5.3) environment I am planning on doing the following. Note that our environment is purely in support of linux virtualized servers and the only cms users are the handful of sysprogs supporting z/vm.
installing both racf/vm and dirmaint all linux virtual server guests will be defined with LBYONLY and a LOGONBY for the sysprogs all system machines with the exception of Operator will also be defined with LBYONLY and LOGONBY for the sysprogs Does anyone see any issues/exposures with this approach.
