Re: HSM AUTH DATABASEAUTHORITY

2009-08-07 Thread Brian Fraser
I don't have a system in front of me at the moment to verify, but I think
that the authorised users are stored as record type U.

The following command will verify if this is correct.
HSEND FIXCDS U userid

If it is then the record can be removed with this command.
HSEND FIXCDS U userid DELETE

Re: HSM AUTH DATABASEAUTHORITY

2009-08-07 Thread Schwarz, Barry A
At some convenient time, such as just before or after a scheduled IPL,
you could deactivate the FACILITY class in RACF, issue all the AUTH
REVOKE commands, and reactivate the FACILITY class.

Alternately, add the REVOKE commands to ARCCMDxx and recycle HSM.  Or
have one of the currently RACF authorized users issue the REVOKE
commands.  The manual says the update is performed even if it has no
immediate effect while RACF protection is active.

In either case, I would keep at least one user ID authorized just in
case RACF control should become ineffective for some reason.

Subject: HSM AUTH DATABASEAUTHORITY

Does anyone know whether there is a way to delete old HSM AUTH records
from
the HSM data sets. Removing the AUTH userid DBA(CONTROL) command from
ARCCMDxx stops them being added, but they are still saved somewhere
until
deleted with the AUTH userid REVOKE command.
Since HSM started using RACF facility resources, any use of the AUTH
command
results in message ARC0180I user AUTHORIZATION IS NOT CHANGED.

This means if the HLIST USER command is issued, a list of userids is
returned that is not the effective list. The list is preceeded by the
message ARC1700I DFSMSHSM COMMANDS ARE RACF PROTECTED  but it is not
clear
that the list provided is ineffective.
